Joss Whedon Revives Buffy the Vampire Slayer - With a Twist!

[PassionBecoming]

Joss Whedon brought back Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Yes, you read that right.
But"”and this is a big but"”it's on a napkin. Yes, a napkin.

When asked by a fan for more Buffy the Vampire Slayer content, Whedon obliged with a drawing of the Slayer staking a vampire. Her speech balloon reads "pun!" with several other notes to get the point across. Buffy's back! Sort of. The Twitter user seemed to "summon" Whedon to the social media platform and he jokingly asked for her wish. The wish? More Buffy. Napkins were not mentioned.

Fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer should know the adventures of Buffy Summers and the Scooby Gang continue in a comic series from Dark Horse which Whedon oversees as an executive producer. In fact, Xander himself, Nicholas Brendon, is writing portions of the series as well.

Anthony Stewart Head, Rupert Giles to Buffy fans, recently said he'd be down for reviving the character for the Ripper TV movie that has been talked about for years.
"You know what? I would do it. I would do anything to work with Joss again. He's a wonderful storyteller, a great director, and a lovely man," Head told Vulture when asked about a Giles spinoff still coming together. "I would love to, you know? Whether it's Ripper or something else..."

To that we say, "yes."

Aw poor Spike.... 😀

In what way? At least he's not the one getting staked. Thats If that scrawl is meant to be Angel of course. 😀

Joss Whedon is such a legend

Think that is a quite brilliant way of summarize the essence of the show with just a simple drawing.

There's actually another bit off to the left- an arrow pointing at Buffy saying 'fashionable dress!' 😀

Summing up the basics of his show on a friggin' napkin. Genius, and poking fun at the same time. 🙂

And how did I guess that this alone would start another shipping war...

I don't see why it would, that is clearly the Count from Sesame Street that she's staking. 😀

I can already see in my mind's eye the t-shirts printed with vector graphics of Joss' drawing 🙂

I'm sure Joss made the identity of the vampire in the napkin kind of ambiguous (both our leading vamps have pretty ridiculous hair) just to fan the flames of the shipping war. If I was in his position, I would totally screw with us too😀

Lmao. Awesome napkin and great Firefly drawing... "I didnt die"', that's damn right you didn't! ;p 😀

I half expected to see white avengers humour on this page, still about the picture of the vampire on the napkin. It is so obviously Angel. Spike had White/ peroxide blonde/ bleached hair while Angel had black hair as does the one on the napkin. And those furrowed eyebrows; it seems as though someone has had a long time perfecting that brooding look.

It's Angel, but then again "metaphor" should settle any debate on this...

That said, it's awesome seeing the OP picture of Buffy again...
