This foundational story from character creator Isabella contains the holy trinity of BL's core values: family, students, and community. Plot points from this mid-90s run don't figure greatly in the CW television series, but the tone and priorities greatly inform the show. A milestone in the vein of Dark Knight Returns, this is essential comic book reading.
