Dive into the final oversized issue of Monster High: New Scaremester! School’s out for… spring. It feels like the new scaremester just started, but our dutiful headmaster has called off school for the rest of the scaremester. After almost a dozen students have disappeared under Headmaster Frankenstein’s administration, the monster has finally stitched his act together long enough to take action. If you ask me, it’s too little too late. Loyal Criers will know that I’ve been raising alarm bells all scaremester while the administration and school board have turned a blind eye to the issues. It’s time to take action, ghouls. Let’s end this scaremester with a bang!

In the words of some famous old manster, “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.” Well, no offense to that boo, but…I disagree. I mean, each Hallow’s Eve normies wrap themselves in toilet paper and bedsheets and call themselves monsters? As if their flannel rags could touch our Clawdeen Wolf booriginal designs… Ghouls, there is nothing scarier than a bad costume. Luckily, Headmaster Frankenstein and Draculaura are throwing a carnival for the real monsters guaranteed to genuinely send chills down their spines. Halloween may be a boring normie howliday, but you never know what, or who, might be lurking around the coroner!

BOOM! Releases a First Look at Buffy the Vampire Slayer #2

Posted on by

BOOM! Studios has unveiled a first look at Buffy the Vampire Slayer #2, the highly anticipated next chapter of the all new monthly comic book series.

Eisner Award-nominated writer Jordie Bellaire and Russ Manning Award-winning artist Dan Mora, along with series creator and story consultant Joss Whedon, continue to reimagine the groundbreaking pop culture phenomenon.

The Slayer traditionally walks a lonely road as the Chosen One, forsaking family, friends, and anything remotely resembling a social life in order to fight the forces of evil and keep darkness at bay night after night. But this is Buffy Summers, who wants what every teenager wants: friends at her new school, decent grades, a cute crush, and to escape a destiny she neither chose nor asked for as a lone warrior imbued with supernatural strength and a terrible calling. When her classmates Willow and Xander find out about her secret identity as a vampire-hunting Slayer, they dive right in but there’s a reason why the Slayer is usually alone, and Buffy must face her fears about what happens when you let people into your life and put them in harm’s way.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #2  features a main cover by acclaimed Mondo illustrator Matthew Taylor, along with variant covers by artists Kevin Wada, Celia Lowenthal,  Ryan Inzana, and Audrey Mok. It comes to shelves February 27, 2019.
