Pull List: From TV to Comics Edition
Comics I either own or might consider owning based on my enjoyment of the original television show.
List items
-
The canon prequel to the B:tVS television series.
-
The official continuation of Buffy: the Vampire Slayer TV series. I own this mostly in trades, but with the first six or so issues individually, as well.
-
Included in a Season 8 trade.
-
Included in a Season 8 trade.
-
A comics-only spin off in the Buffyverse, included here because its characters cross over into Season 8.
-
Follows Season 8. I plan on owning this exclusively in trades.
-
A spin-off of Season 8 meant to run concurrent with Season 9. I plan on owning this exclusively in trades.
-
Placeholder for the Drusilla comic that we were once promised: "Drusilla: Run and Catch" which was meant to spin out of "Angel & Faith"'s first volume, a.k.a. the Season 9 one.
-
Canonically concurrent with Season 9.
-
Canonically concurrent with Season 9. I'm pretty much definitely not going to pick this one up -- he used to be cool, but I'm a hardcore Buffy x Angel fan and I've hated him being involved with Buffy.
-
-
-
The official continuation of the Angel television series; takes place before the events of B:tVS Season 8.
-
Imagines what may've happened between Buffy Season 5 and Buffy Season 6 (when Buffy and Angel met up after Buffy came back from the dead) of the TV show. Seems canon enough for me, heh.
-
Probably not considered canon, but I like to think of it as if it is because I like the character from the TV show so much.
-
More about Spike and Halfrek, something I yearned to see in the TV show itself. Not sure if it's canon, but close enough for me.
-
I have issue #4, the Doyle spotlight issue. Probably not considered canon, but I like to think of it as if it is (takes place before the Angel television series) because I like the character from the TV show so much.
-
-
I was sorely tempted to buy this in individual issues, but honestly... By 2015, we had definitely entered the Age of the TPB for me.
-
Here's a TPB about the tragic Helsinki clones. Not as much of a "must buy" as the previous Orphan Black TPB.
-
A "What If?" issue asking the question "What if Sarah had saved Beth that fateful night at the train station?"
-
I've got the little book that was packaged with the Season 2 DVD set of the original Dollhouse TV series, but the #0.5 issue or Dollhouse One-Shot may not be in the Trade Paperback so I might have to purchase it separately as it has 15 additional pages of material.
-
Will buy this because it continues the story of the TV show "Dollhouse." :)
-
Haven't been too keen on picking this one up. Might eventually. Based on the original Firefly TV series.
-
Decided to buy this one instead of the other Serenity book because it seemed better. Based on the original Firefly TV series.
-
Prequel to the original Firefly TV series.
-

This six-issue miniseries takes place a year and a half after "Serenity: Leaves on the Wind."
-
A series written by Greg Pak, who also did the first Storm series.
-
Bought this trade paperback that collects the print edition #1-#6, which itself collects the digital chapters 1-13. Set in the world of the CW TV show.
-
The "Valkyrie" storyline is a team-up between Lana Lang and Lois Lane, so it's possibly worth buying.
-
I love Edward Scissorhands, so I definitely want to get this.
-
I love the Tenth Doctor, so here's another series I might want to pick up.
-
I bought Issues #9 and #10, because those are my two favorite Doctors. I originally just wanted to buy #10, but then I saw #9 had my favorite companion Rose in it, so why not?
-
There are... a LOT of Xena comic books out there, by various publishers. While I'm sure the Dynamite comics are the best, I'm just not sure at this point what I own or how much of each kind. So let's just put this down as representative of all Xena comic books.
-
Yes, yes, so much yes! Bought this one. I wanted an X-Files comic, but I wasn't sure I wanted to go back to buy the old ones. I was also thinking of getting a 30 Days of Night comic, so this became a must-own book. Mulder and Scully investigate vampires in Alaska! Representative of all X-Files comic books.
-
The official continuation of the television show.
-
Cole Turner returns for a couple of issues. There's also another volume of Charmed out there with a lot more Cole, but I don't know how in-continuity it is.
-
Cole Turner has appeared in the first four issues of this. The best of the bunch of Season Nine and Season 10 so far is Charmed S10 #4, which featured some degree of reconciliation between Phoebe and Cole as well as good art, but Cole died via true, permanent death (stabbed with the Athame). Issue #5 focused on Cole as well, as his post-death issue. So much for me getting into this series! Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

Images can be pulled for Librarians (team page) and Cassandra/Ezekiel/Jacob/Flynn/Eve (members) from each issue's individual CV page (for covers) and CBR previews (for interior pages): https://www.cbr.com/the-librarians-1/ https://www.cbr.com/the-librarians-2/ https://www.cbr.com/the-librarians-3/ https://www.cbr.com/the-librarians-4/

There was an Animorphs television show back on Nickelodeon, though the graphic novels are based on the books rather than the TV show. I would like to get this sometime if there's a collected edition someday. The art style is a little too cartoon-ish for such dark subject matter, however.
-
Although he was a comic cat first, I really grew to love him in his TV show and movies. I got the first issue of Kaboom!'s ongoing series.
-
"That was a hoot!" So Marvel had a Rocko's Modern Life comic?? What?? Hah, probably won't bother to hunt it down, but I love the television show, so I'll include it on this list.
-
-
The official continuation of the TV show! I don't own it, but it looks neat.
-
What a great show! The comic probably doesn't live up to it...
-
Good Lord... why? Lol. Still, loved to enjoy the show with my dad, so here it is.
-
See Quantum Leap.
-
This show was best with Jerry O'Connell.
-
And yet, I continued to watch it until it went off the air.
-
Despite the fact that the plot eventually involved evil alien overlords.
-
Yes, I said "evil alien overlords."
-
I'm actually pretty sure this particular volume wasn't that great, but the Boom Studios stuff (listed below) should be good.

1993 Malibu volume. I don't actually have any of the 1990s Malibu volumes, but I put them here because Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, the TV show, is just that awesome. I might pick up something from 2000+, who knows.
