A lot of the stories were a kind of meh. But I'll read anything that is part of the Buffyverse though. It would have been better without the Angel story too. If you can find this discounted somewhere then grab it up. My review and rating is biased because I am a huge Buffy fan.

Apart from the little bit with Dracula and Xander (my fave bromance) I wasnt too impressed with this.

It was all over the place.
A lot of the stories were repetitive or had no plot.
I was more interested in the story with Edna but even that barely had any development.

Surprise, surprise. I liked the baddie book better than the slayer version. The art was more compelling and it was long enough to make it work. Yay vampires.

I loved the story about Xander and Dracula and now I wish to read more about what they did together. Sometimes I really miss Buffy and then comics like these cheer me up.

Dracula said what, and when was that?
Have you ever thought that you read a book and when someone is talking about it--like major plot elements, concepts, themes, or characters you have absolutely no memory of them? That was my experience recently when i, in one of my Buffyobsessession throes was checking out some of the slayer timeline sites and saw some references to a story in the grapic novel Tales of the Vampires by Joss Whedon, Ben Edlund, Jane Espenson, Brett Matthews, and Drew Goddard. Now all the slayer timelines i've found are incomplete as far as i'm concerned so i'm working on one of my own (among my many other projects)--anyway i'm thinking i don't remember that story and i did read that book--didn't i? So i go pull it off my shelf--start rereading it and in fact i never did finish it--the story in question really isn't that great (or that memorable in fact--maybe i just blocked it out) But overall the collection itself is pretty good--now if they would just get those watchers' journals out!
