Buffy and Angel Comics Will Return in 2027 With Fan-Favorite Characters
Dynamite Entertainment will launch new Buffy comics in March 2027, alongside a new Angel series.
The comics continue the stories of characters first introduced in the 1992 Buffy film and the 1997 TV series starring Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Spike, Dawn, Tara, Faith and Anya are among the returning characters, while Angel’s Fred will also appear.
The announcements leave a key question open: the comics’ place in the TV timeline is unclear.
Tara is shown alive and Xander has both eyes, while the first issue’s summary refers to Buffy giving her life to save the world.
That summary has led some fans to suspect the story follows season five, but that has not been confirmed.
The series will begin with Buffy the Vampire Slayer #1, and Dynamite has also teased a beloved character’s comics debut without revealing who it is.
