Caroline's Reviews > Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Dust Waltz

I'm a huge Btvs/Angel fan and it's been a while since I read any of the comics from my collection so here is my review.

Things I liked
I really liked the humor as I thought it was pretty honest with the tv show and I could hear the actor's/actresses' voices which is good.

The characters seemed pretty on point with their tv counterparts, though Willow seemed a bit off and Xander seemed helpful to find Angel which was surprising.

The artwork was really good, and I thoroughly enjoyed the action within the story.

Inconsistences
I'm wondering where Giles's niece came from as there was no mention of Giles having any siblings so that came outta nowhere here and she really didn't contribute ANYTHING to the story.

Not only that Lilith is the mother of all vampires. Ummm okay, since on the show Archaeus is the creator of the vampire species, so unless the author of the story used the mythos of Lilith and her spawn of vampires as "cousins" then I could accept that but it's still pretty inconsistent with the world mythology of Buffy the Vampire Slayer already created.

Overall
I still enjoyed reading this, it's Buffy, and with comics/novels, I should be aware that they may be inconsistencies that would contradict the TV show. I just think that this deserved a two-parter to flesh out some of the other details ie: Lilith and Lamia, the vampires descended from Lilith's line and etc.
