Product Description:
Hundreds of years in the future, Manhattan has become a deadly slum, run by mutant crime-lords and disinterested cops. Stuck in the middle is a young girl who thought she had no future, but learns she has a great destiny. In a world so poisoned that it doesn't notice the monsters on its streets, how can a street kid like Fray unite a fallen city against a demonic plot to consume mankind? Joss Whedon, the celebrated creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, brings his vision to the future in this unique tale. As inventive in the comics medium as in that of television of film, Whedon spins a complex tale of a skilled thief coming of age without the help of friends or family, guided only by a demonic Watcher.

Calling all fans of Buffy---READ THIS BOOK. You will enjoy it. Fray is a futuristic vampire (or lurks as they call them) slayer. This graphic novel shows Fray's "coming to terms" with being the slayer much like the story line Buffy followed in the beginning, but the setting is much different than Buffy as this is set in the future (flying cars and all). Joss fans and Buffy fans will eat this up (no vamp-pun intended). Its a great read and I want to know how I can get some of these art pages in poster ... Read More

I really liked this, after venturing in without being sure what to expect. I thought the writing was solid, and liked the new character a lot, as well as some of the "fun with language" stuff that Joss does so well. I liked the art design for the characters and that they didn't get too cheesy with the comic depictions (after reading Witchblade - Origins, which just about made me want to vomit - a little subtlety/layering was very welcome!). Whedon also gets the gender stuff in a way most comic writers ... Read More

If you're familiar with Buffy, this is the story of a slayer hundreds of years from now. If you're not familiar with Buffy, you don't need to be to read this. Everything you need to know is explained and there are no spoilers for the show, so if you're watching Buffy and haven't seen it all you have nothing to worry about, you can read this without being spoiled. I highly recommend this to anyone reading Season 8 because there is an arc in Season 8 with Fray in it.
I only have two hands but I'm defying ... Read More

if you are a buffy fan this is a must, If you never give buffy a chance, this is a must, if you dont have a clue about buffy this is a must... Once you read it you will want to read more and know everything about the slayer mithos.
Great starting point for those unfamiliar with Joss Whedon work...

Certainly better than "Buffy: Season 7", Fray captures some of the goofy spirit that made the television show so enjoyable for so long. However, despite Whedon's best efforts (or maybe because of them), it still feels like a toothless attempt at TV series.
There are no emotional connections deep enough to surprise or shock the reader, although that doesn't stop Whedon from 'shocking' revelations at every turn.
The art is better than average, and supports the gimmicky future that Whedon ... Read More
