FREEBUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER SEASON 9 VOLUME 4: WELCOME TO THE TEAM EBOOK Andrew Chambliss,Sierra Hahn,Scott Allie,Karl Moline,Andy Owens,Georges Jeanty,Dexter Vines | 168 pages | 08 Oct 2013 | DARK HORSE COMICS | 9781616551667 | English | Milwaukee, United States Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Welcome to the Team by Andrew Chambliss It really is back to basics with this installment of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Buffy is no longer attached to the business operation that Kennedy has created which I was not a fan of, mostly because I hate Kennedy and is back on the streets doing what she does best, fight vampires technically zompires and trying to save the world. This is the Buffy I've been missing, and I'm so glad to have her back. Even though the gang is not back together by the end of this volume it would seem that things may be heading in that direction. That, and the guys at comic-con said that is. There were a lot of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 Volume 4: Welcome to the Team in this volume, and I'm excited to see where this takes the series. I am a fan of the new addition to the group, Billy, who despite being without special slayer abilities, is doing pretty well for himself and can certainly keep his own in a fight. Despite this, he continues to believe that he is worthless and should quit until his boyfriend, Devon, reassures him that he is an integral part of the team. He still has some growing up to do, and I'm excited to watch him go through all the motions as I do like him. I'm still a little iffy on Dowling, the cop that now helps Buffy slay the zompires. He still has a little bit of character building to go, especially since it looks like he is a potential love interest for Buffy. I feel about Dowling how I feel about my friends new dating partners. I have to meet them and approve before I allow it to happen. Maybe allow is the wrong word, but you get what I mean. The art is still of the highest caliber, and I'm looking forward to seeing more from Georges Jeanty. I feel that he really stays true to the characters, not just with their looks, but their expressions are believable and often affecting. Overall, I was quite impressed with this volume and can't wait to go buy the next one. Probably in the next couple of days. I was a little weary of where it was heading for the last couple of volumes, but now I'm feeling better. I firmly believe that it's now back on track since I had the feeling it was kind of losing its way. A great addition to the growing Buffyverse. Here at Walmart.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 Volume 4: Welcome to the Team - - It is the sequel to the Season Eight comic book series, a canonical continuation of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The core series consisted of 25 issues and each miniseries consisted of 5 issues. At the start of Season Ninethe series focuses on Buffy living in San Francisco in a world without magic. Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine continues the plot thread from the previous seriesfocusing on Buffy and her core group of friends. After the Twilight crisisin which she destroyed the 'Seed of Wonder' and consequently brought about the end of magicBuffy is now living in San Francisco [4] and must continue her duties as the Slayer. For example, in the process of becoming a vampire, demons are no longer able to fully possess the dead, creating mindless creatures which Xander coins "zompires". Xander and Buffy's sister Dawn have settled into a quiet domestic life together, and Buffy's best friend Willow no longer possesses magical abilities. Andrew and Riley are still friends of Buffy's, but she sees them less frequently. Buffy lives with two seemingly normal roommates, Tumble and Anaheed, and the job of patrolling for vampires initially falls to Buffy and her ex-lover Spikea vampire with a soul. Due to his feelings for Buffy, Spike departs San Francisco in his space ship. Willow also leaves, Buffy's broken scythe in tow, on a quest to restore magic. Buffy faces a few enemies, including many ravenous zompires, the rogue Slayer Simone Dofflerand a young man named Severin— prophesied as "the Siphon"— who since the end of magic possesses the ability to drain demons and Slayers of their magic. Buffy works primarily with a few new allies, including Robert Dowling, an SFPD officer who heads up an anti-zompire task force, and Billy Lane, a gay teenager who moved to San Francisco to support Buffy's cause. Later it is revealed that Anaheed is another Slayer who has been tasked with looking out for Buffy, and she takes Billy under her wing. Buffy is also briefly allied with Eldre Koh, an ancient demon whose mystical prison was broken along with the end of magic, and for this swears a debt of loyalty to Buffy. Koh reveals however, that his vendetta against his ancient jailer trumps his loyalty to Buffy, and betrays her trust. Later, on a mission with Dowling and Billy, Buffy finds herself transported to Los Angeles where she is approached by another ancient demon, Illyria a character from the television series Angelwho recruits Buffy to a team dedicated to defeating Severin. Buffy, Illyria and Koh strategize to disarm and take out Severin. However, their plan fails and Severin is successful in draining Illyria of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 Volume 4: Welcome to the Team abilities leaving her alive but powerless and stuck in the physical appearance of her human host body, Winifred Burkle. Having drained Illyria of her powers, Severin acquires her ability to freely travel through time, which he needs to resurrect his dead girlfriend. Soon after, Buffy discovers that Dawn who was created from a mystical key in Buffy season five is dying as a result of the end of magic. Xander— who has been struggling with his anger since Giles' death in Season Eight —blames Buffy for Dawn's predicament. Severin and Simone approach and ask him to steal Buffy's sole inheritance from Giles the Vampyr book seen in Buffy episode one so that they might use it to go back in time and avert the Twilight crisis which precipitated the end of magic. Willow returns from her journey with her powers and Buffy's scythe restored, but she can only buy time for Dawn, whose health is still failing. Xander appears to confess to Buffy of Severin's plan, leading the trio head to the Deeper Well in the English Cotswolds a prison for ancient demons seen in Angel where they hope they can acquire sufficient magical reserves for Willow to restore Dawn. Spike returns to San Francisco to provide comfort to Dawn; he watches over her as she fades rapidly from existence. As Buffy's team enters the Well, at the opposite end of the Earth so too do Simone and Severin, acting on information supplied by Xander. Buffy learns of Xander's deceit and is furious with him. Inside, Severin and Willow both charge with abundant magical energies, but it is too much for Severin to handle and he will soon Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 Volume 4: Welcome to the Team with power.
