Buffy comics

BOOM! Studios are stopping Buffy, Angel and Firefly comics after almost six years, citing a business decision, but pretty abruptly as this includes cancelling a Firefly series about Zoe when it was supposed to start.

What comes next? I hope somebody picks (or has picked) up the licences.

I never jived with their approach of a modern reboot rearranging characters and connections, particularly some of the decisions they made, though I enjoy a giant talking bat. I basically got out of getting monthly comics in 2020 anyway for obvious unrelated reasons, and let them slide as part of that. I have picked up some one-shots and minis set in the regular Buffyverse, although I didn’t feel like keeping up with the multiple assorted what-if spinoffs after the first run.

I did like the reveal that the comic parallel universe was the world without shrimp. No notes.
