Buffy the Vampire Slayer Classic: Tales of the Slayers Graphic Novel

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the latest in a long tradition of young women who've been trained to give their lives in the war against vampires. We've gotten glimpses of these other women over the years on T.V., in comics, and in books. Now for the first time, the writers from the television series, including the show's creator, Joss Whedon, and one of its stars, Amber "Tara" Benson, present the tales of these girls, with the help of comics' greatest artists. Gene Colan, co-creator of Marvel's _Blade_ and _Tomb of Dracula_, returns to Dark Horse for the story of a young girl in 1970s New York, battling vampires. Tim Sale, artist of recent epics _Batman: The Long Halloween_ and _Superman_ for _All Seasons_ teams with Joss Whedon for a grim tale of a medieval slayer. American comics legend P. Craig Russell (_Dr. Strange_, _The Ring of the Nibelung_) and international rising star Mira Friedmann (_Actus Tragicus_) also join the stellar lineup.
