Every Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan has their choice of the perfect man for the titular heroine. The correct answer is Riley, of course, but it's Angel who is the one making his back into her life in an upcoming reboot miniseries.



For context, Boom! Studios (the people behind the amazing Power Rangers comic books for the last few years) have been running both Buffy and Angel comics, and now they are bringing them together.



As announced by The Hollywood Reporter, a five-part series called Hellmouth will follow on from recent issues of both series and feature the Hellmouth opening up and threatening to swallow the whole of Sunnydale.


The rebooted comics feature the same characters, but the stories have been taking a different turn to what you are used to from the TV shows. For example, Xander is a vampire now. And Angel may be either a friend or foe to Buffy...



That's not the only reboot the franchise is having, as a TV revival was revealed to be in the works at 20th Century Fox (which is now owned by Disney, of course...). You can find out everything you need to know about that right here.

Good picture.

I guess that's a cover drawing.

[Melinda Halliwell]

The picture is nice Tim yes.

Good likeness of the characters and actors drawn there.

I wonder what people will think of the Buffy/Angel pairing again?

Fans of these two will enjoy that obviously.

[Tim]

The likenesses are excellent. 

It's good when you can recognize your favourite characters.

Good likeness.

[Tim]

Wish I could draw that good.

[Melinda Halliwell]

My friends a good drawer though he hasn't done that in years due to lack of inspiration which if he didn't have he could probably do this now then.

[Tim]

He should try again.  Talent like that should not go to waste, IMO.

[Melinda Halliwell]

He would like to which I've mentioned also but like I previously said he just needs to find inspiration somewhere.

[Tim]

Hope that happens before long.

I have been reading these, and the new Buffy/Angel ones. I'm yet to reach the crossover. Good job with this reboot in comic form. It is different, but I am liking it for the most part.

And doing comics, you don't have to worry about actor availability.

Or, in the case of Buffy and Angel, that they're now 20 years older.

That's right, lots of creative freedom and not needing to worry about the cast ageing. The best way to reboot the series in comic form, while still keeping them looking as they did, just taking them into 2019.

[Tim]

I agree.  The best of both worlds.

[Dark Avenger]

It would be cool if they did an animated series like that.
