Weekly Comic Book Pulls for 01-04-08

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #10
Please, Joss Whedon and Dark Horse, please, please, please, please, please let Cliff Richards become the regular artist on the series. I would be eternally grateful and would shower this book with endless praise. Richards fills in for this one off story that reveals a little secret about Dawn, while also looking into the past and future of Buffy and Willow as they have a tête-à-tête with a demon. I don’t understand why they’re not using Richards, as he employs a similar style to the regular artist, but his characters stay on model, and his faces show actual emotion. Revealing secrets is the name of the game this issue, and there are a lot of good bits strewn throughout. Joss is back to write this issue so you know the dialog will pop and everyone will sound like they’re supposed to. This is a very good issue of the series, much improved by the superior art. ---4 out of 5
