Wow, I'm two volumes into season 10 of the Buffy comics and I LOVE IT! I so wish (haha pun on title intended) that the two previous seasons had been done by the writer and artist team behind this season had done the last two. Laugh out loud funny, great grasp on the characters I love, real hard hitting emotional moments (Andrew trying to bring back Tara and Willow stopping him 😿) and intriguing lurking big bad. It's like everything Buffy I love!

I am pleased with the story for the most part. Everyone wanting to write in the special book that will create the new rules and laws of magic is beginning to get old and it's funny at the same time. There was a drunk Leprechaun that was funny.
Clem and Harmony make an appearance again. They are cute together actually. I thought there were spells surrounding the book, but Clem was able to write in it anyway. Unicorns are real, that's a good new rule.
There are horrible new monsters to fight in this one. We also see just what a bunch of idiots people can be as they like to part outside the Sunnydale Hellmouth hole on Halloween night.
I think the story is fine now. The stakes are not that high and it's a decent story, not great, not terrible. I can see why they started loosing readers at this point. The quality has gone down. Still, it's entertaining enough.

This collection had 3 different stories with lots of character development, but also still lots of action. Back to Sunnydale was my favourite, but all 3 stories were good. There was a lot of Xander, presumably because Nicholas Brendan wrote some of the stories, but it was Xander at his best. Based on the direction of these stories and hints at what's to come I think it's going to be a really good season. Plus... unicorns are totally real! ;)

So they have to set the new rules, they also have to take a trip back to Sunnydale, and everything is kinda complicated.. I loved that volume, really. I love Andrew and I felt like he was under-used in the previous two seasons, these issues give him the space he needs to be a real character and it's awesome.

I've come to the official conclusion that this season feels the most like the show used to out of the comic seasons, give or take a bit of ridiculousness.
The 12 year old Giles is weird. A. it signifies that I should have read Angel + Faith, B. Giles is 12 years old? WTF? I still hear ole Anthony Head's voice when I read his lines. I guess it's interesting that he's mentally an older guy but emotionally a teenager.
Harmony? C'mon. Why hasn't someone staked her yet?
Also, the art in this one was not as enjoyable. But I'm still all aboard ready for more. I'm coming to realize this series is my guilty pleasure.
