Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight Volume 6: Retreat

Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight Volume 6: Retreat Review

In these five issues, Buffy and friends travel to Tibet so Oz can help them suppress their magical powers and therefore stay off Twilight's radar. Meanwhile, Andrew indulges in his documentary film making fetish once again when he believes one of them is a spy for Twilight; Oz's new life makes Willow jealous; and Buffy witnesses an odd encounter between two friends. When Twilight's army strikes, the Scoobies and the Slayers are forced into battle without any magical powers or super strength.

Although this sixth volume doesn't reach the greatness of the show, or even of the No Future For You or Wolves at the Gate arcs, it's still an improvement over the previous two volumes. I like how they spent time on characters here and sort of eased down on the ridiculous comic action for a bit. It was great seeing Oz and Willow together again, an odd but realistic romance beginning, and Andrew breaking out the camcorder (Storyteller was one of my favorite episodes of season 7).

If you don't like the season eight comics so far, stay away. There's still some pretty over the top stuff and I'm sure you'll not like this new romance that's developing. But if you have enjoyed them so far, keep reading, it's getting better!

Also, look out for the two 2-page stories at the end. Jane Espenson (who wrote the previous five issues) writes "Harmony Comes to the Nation" where our favorite ditzy vampire is interviewed by Stephen Colbert. And then there's Joss Whedon's "Always Darkest" which manages to be sexy, funny, and sad while having a few surprising cameos in just two or three pages. Both are fun little additions to this volume.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight Volume 6: Retreat Overview

Buffy Season Eight Volume 6 showcases the first failure of the Slayer legion. Vampires have solid footing at the top of the totem and Slayers have been crushed to the bottom - in short, no one likes Buffy anymore... least of all this season's mysterious Big Bad, Twilight, who is hot on her magical trail! Now that it's the world against Slayers, Buffy must find a way to return the status quo to... status quo - and keep her girls alive long enough to do it! Enter Oz, the only person/werewolf Buffy knows who is down with the suppression of magic, and can take the Slayer army off of Twilight's magic-specific radar. With Oz's assistance the Slayers and Wiccans try to become "normal" through meditation and hard labor - although, not everyone sees the advantage of being magicless, namely, Willow, Giles, and Andrew. And they could be right; after all, is a peaceful life for a Slayer even possible?
