Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine is a comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics from 2011 to 2013. It is the sequel to the Season Eight comic book series, a canonical continuation of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.[2] The Season Nine brand also incorporates a new Buffy spin-off series, Angel & Faith, and two spin-off miniseries Willow: Wonderland and Spike: A Dark Place.
The core series consists of 25 issues and each miniseries consists of 5 issues. While Joss Whedon, the creator of the original television series, shares writing duties with Andrew Chambliss on the main series, Christos Gage writes Angel & Faith.
The beginning of Season Nine focuses on Buffy living in San Francisco in a world without magic.[3] Angel & Faith, on the other hand, is set primarily in London and pursues several plot threads from Season Eight. The series were followed in 2014 by the start of a Season Ten line of Buffy and Angel & Faith comics.
