Reddit reviews Spike: The Complete Series

This is the officially canon, post-show comic list. There's more canon comics that take place during or before the shows, but this is everything that comes after. The only pre-show comics on here are the 'Tales' comics, but that's because Joss had direct involvement and they're awesome. They're a collection of shorts about past slayers and vampires. There are some reading order issues involved with Tales, so make sure you don't spoil yourself. The final two Tales of the Vampires stories take place during Season 8. Also, Fray takes place in the far future, but it MUST be read before Season 8.

1. Tales of the Slayers / Tales of the Vampires aka 'Tales' (there's an "omnibus" version coming out in October)
   
2. Fray
   
3. Angel: After The Fall
   
4. Spike: The Complete Series (optional, but recommended)
   
5. Buffy: Season 8
   
6. Season 9 (Buffy, Angel & Faith, Spike: A Dark Place, and Willow: Wonderland)
   
7. Season 10 (Buffy and Angel & Faith)
   
8. Season 11(Buffy, Angel, and Giles: Girl Blue) [feel free to not read Angel or Giles. They're both very bad]
   
9. Season 12 (just Buffy. This is the final season)
   
   And there's like a ridiculous amount of tangential "potentially canon" comics that I could tell you all about too. Feel free to ask me anything.

I cant find complete sets of Buffy season 8 but here are some links:

Frey

Angel: After the Fall These are the canon comics of Angel: After the Fall. They did continue but were renamed to just Angel and the first volume is called Immortality for Dummies But as i said, this is not canon and Joss is not connected to this, AFAIK.

Spike: After the Fall

Spike: The Complete Series

And here i just searched for Buffy season 8 on amazon, you should be able to find all 8 issues here.

As i said, i just recently started gathering info about these comics, and i ordered all of this myself 1 week ago, aswell as this, which i couldnt find on amazon.

Willow: Godessess and Monsters

And here I sit, waiting for all of my comics to get here.

Yup the first 4 are the only ones that really matter, the rest are just extra context or fun stories that don't really matter. I recommend getting Volumes 1-4 The Spike Tie-in and spikes own series After that start reading Buffy season 8, then Season 9 and Angel and Faith.

While the 2 spike books arnt written by Joss he commissioned Brian to write them for him so they do matter!
