The eighth “season” of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is coming to an iPod near you. The story, which has been playing out in award-winning comic book form for more than a year, has been converted into a “motion comic” that debuted last month on iTunes. All 19 “episodes” will be available on DVD in January.
The comic, which has been written by many of the same writers who made the television series so successful – including series creator Joss Whedon picks up where the series left off: Buffy and Xander move to Scotland following the activation of thousands of Slayers around the world and the destruction of Sunnydale.
The first issue/episode, “The Long Way Home, Part 1,” ranked at #23 of the iTunes Top 25 television downloads during its first week of release.
