This collection was hit and miss for me, but overall not terrible. I felt there were some moments when I didn't think the characters connected at all and that was probably my biggest let down. I mean I've never seen Buffy lift weights at the pool or make a game of swatting flies blindfolded, MacGuffins I call you out. There were also some pitfalls in the art, although I must admit I enjoyed the variety (Angels We Have Seen on High, beautiful colors). My favorite was probably A Steak to the Heart, I liked that Dawn was included and the stuff about Joyce and Hanks divorce was pretty moving- bonus the art was awesome! I also enjoyed Paint the Town Red although I'm not sure Spike and Dru were portrayed as well as they were in Queen of Hearts which was super good. Ring of Fire and Dust Waltz were ok although I really didn't like some of the art in Dust Waltz it just didn't seem to fit to me.

Another wonderful volume in the Buffy world! I loved the last bit about Lillith, it was very interesting. The characters seem true to the show as well!

I'm accustomed to different art styles in these omnibus editions, but I was really annoyed that this edition kept skipping to so many different timelines. This volume was definitely not as good as the first.

This is maybe 3.5 stars but I rounded up because, Buffy. Felt very true to the series, with a lot of its humor. Uhh if you like Buffy you will probably like these comics?
