The Chain last edited by sametattoos on 11/20/22 04:34AM View full history

    Buffy's new position as leader and figurehead of the world's five hundred most powerful women has made her a bigger target than ever before.

    "The Chain" tells the story of one of the decoy "Buffy" Slayers, a tale personally important to series creator Joss Whedon.

    Guest artist Paul Lee (Conan, Tales of the Vampires) pencils the first standalone issue of Season Eight.

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight #5 - The Chain by holly_cross on January 02, 2008
