Comic Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Adult Coloring Book from Dark Horse Comics

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Adult Coloring Book
Artists: Karl Moline, Rebekah Isaacs, Georges Jeanty, Yishan Li, Steve Morris, Newsha Ghasemi
Cover Artist: Karl Moline
Genre: Art Book
December 28, 2016
Format:b&w, 96 pages; TPB, 10'' x 10''
Price: $14.99
Age range: 8
ISBN-10:1-50670-253-8
ISBN-13:978-1-50670-253-7
Enter the world of the Slayer, the Chosen One who wields the skill to fight vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness . . . Favorite characters and moments from the beloved television series are represented in this delightful adult coloring book. Containing 45 black-and-white, detailed, and original illustrations, you can add color to Buffy and Co.—and, of course, all the Big Bads!

* Includes 45 pieces of beautifully detailed black-and-white artwork!


I got a look at a digital version of this coloring book. They illustrated iconic scenes from the series. One page has dialogue or a quote from a scene and the opposing page will be the illustration of that scene. It was fun to revisit some of the funny and action filled moments from the show.

The artwork isn't what I would call beautiful coloring material, but this is aimed more at the Buffy fandom than the fan of adult coloring books...so it's a "fashion over function" deal.

If you are a big Buffy fan or want to find a gift for a fan of the show then you can't go wrong...they probably aren't going to color it, just put it in their fandom collection (raise hand if you have one *raises hand*). But if you are a die hard coloring booker...this would be pretty basic.
