A review by linneahedvig
Fray by Joss Whedon
3.0
Slayer of the Future!
So I've been reading Buffy Season Eight, which is in comic book form (and still going on!). While I was looking for info about that, I found this book, which is another Joss Whedon comic book, set in the Buffy-verse, but in the future! Melaka Fray is a kick-ass thief in the dystopic underbelly of futuristic Manhattan. It feels vaguely cyberpunk (in my mind, could be just the crazy slang they use and all the flying cars and wacky hair colors--these things mean cyberpunk in Linnea-land).
I liked this, though, because it's very Joss, but it's not like he's trying to make Buffy II--Fray is totally different. It was a really fun all-in-one-sitting read.
