A review by theartolater
Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine, Volume 1: Freefall by Jane Espenson, Andrew Chambliss, Joss Whedon

4.0

So now we're into the Buffy graphic novels that I hadn't kept up with monthly. This Season 9 trade takes place a little after the events of Season 8, and things are not so great for Buffy and most of the gang. Someone is around, though, and wants to make it worse than simply zombie-like vampires.

A lot of this worked, but I'm a little skeptical of the direction currently. I get it's a long arc overall, but while the first trade of Season 8 had a huge hit to just bring things around, this felt a lot slower.

I didn't hate it, I really liked it, I just wanted to love it and I didn't. Still will be keeping up with the next trades as well as the spinoffs.
