Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight is a comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics from 2007 to 2011. It serves as a canonical[2] continuation of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and follows the events of that show's final televised season.[3] It is produced by Joss Whedon, who wrote or co-wrote three of the series arcs and several one-shot stories. The series was followed by Season Nine in 2011.
Season Eight was originally supposed to consist of about 25 issues,[4] but eventually expanded to a 40-issue run. The series also spawned a handful of spin-off titles, including a Tales of the Vampires follow-up and one-shots focusing on Willow and Riley.[5]
The success of the series prompted IDW Publishing and Whedon to publish a concurrent continuation of the Angel television series, titled Angel: After the Fall, and a Spike comic book series, which bridges some aspects of continuity between After the Fall and Season Eight.[6] A motion comic version of the series debuted in 2010.[7]
