BOOM! Studios provided us with a first look at the new Buffy The Vampire Slayer: The Lost Summer #1 coming out on May 5, 2023. This special one-shot will be written by Buffy The Vampire Slayer writer Casey Gilly. Gilly will be joined by artist Lauren Knight (Golden Rage, Time Before Time), colorist Francesco Segala (Firefly, House of Slaughter) with color assists by Gloria Martinelli, and letterer Ed Dukeshire.
BOOM! Studios solicitation for Buffy The Vampire Slayer: The Lost Summer one-shot states:
“Spike is determined to keep the last copy of his embarrassing poetry from being discovered, sending Buffy and the gang on a faux-supernatural goose chase to New Orleans to cover his tracks. While at an antiques fair along the way, the group is captivated by The Casquette Girls’ clothes on display. Dawn utters a wish she most likely should’ve kept to herself, and the gang experiences a first hand account of the sisters’ identities…beyond what they could have ever imagined!”
In addition to the main cover for Buffy The Vampire Slayer: The Lost Summer #1 by Mirka Andolfo (Deep Beyond, Sweet Paprika), the one-shot will come with several variant covers. Variant covers by Veronica Fish (Firefly: Brand New ‘Verse, Blackwood), and Paulina Ganucheau (Wonder Woman, The Amazing World of Gumball) will also be available.
