Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 Volume 5: Predators and Prey

Jane Espenson, Drew Z. Greenbert; Jim Krueger; Georges Jeanty; Cliff Richards, Steven S. DeKnight — 2009

Buffy's world goes awry when former-classmate-turned-vampire Harmony Kendall lands her own reality TV show, Harmony Bites, bolstering bloodsucking fiends in the mainstream. Humans line up to have their blood consumed, and Slayers, through a series of missteps, misfortunes, and anti-Slayer propaganda driven by the mysterious Twilight, are forced into hiding. In Germany, Faith and Giles discover a town where Slayers retreat from a world that has turned against them, only to find themselves in the arms of something far worse. A rogue-Slayer faction displaces an entire Italian village, living up to their tarnished reputation as power-hungry thieves. And finally, with the help of a would-be demon lover, Dawn addresses her unfaltering insecurities. * Collects issues #21-#25 and the short stories "Harmony Bites" and "Vampy Cat Play Friend" from MySpace Dark Horse Presents! * A New York Times bestseller!

Guys. GUYS. GUYS! Harmony gets her own TV show and she is like, a celebrity. This is not a drill and it is the best worst thing to happen to anyone ever and I need more. And we get to see new faces And Buffy does her face And there are monsters. In all honesty, this is getting pretty great, in not a great way. The slayers are being hunted and hated, vampires are being sympathized, and “Twilight” is still trying to stop Buffy from doing literally anything. Whoever decided that Twilight was a good name for an evil group against vampire slayers.. needs a head check. I have a feeling my heart is going to burst with anticipation. --- I'm laughing so hard right now. Lolololol RTC.
