Hellmouth #4 just slouches along with weak writing.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #11 // Review
Once again, Buffy the Vampire Slayer continues to be an MVP title for Boom! Studios.
Angel #8 // Review
Angel #8 is another strong issue.
Hellmouth #3 // Review
Hellmouth #3 feels like filler.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #10 // Review
Something is wrong with the men in Sunnydale in Buffy the Vampire Slayer #10.
Angel #7 // Review
Angel #7 is a solid comic that doesn’t transcend the source material.
Hellmouth #2 // Review
Hellmouth #2 is competently drawn, if a bit hackneyed in its writing.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #9 // Review
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #9 is a particularly strong episode in Boom! Studio’s hit-or-miss reboot of the Buffyverse.
Angel #6 // Review
Angel #6 is the strongest issue of the title to date, focusing on the supporting cast rather than the title character.
Hellmouth #1 // Review
Hellmouth #1 is a compelling enough continuation of the story that’s been ongoing in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series.
Angel #5 // Review
All the components for a good comic are here--a good writer with a handle on the characters, a solid art team that particularly works well together. Why, then, does Angel #5 feel (pardon the pun) lifeless?
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #8 // Review
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #8 is a promising, if slight, beginning for the first Buffy/Angel crossover.
Angel #4 // Review
Angel #4 is competently made, but feels slight and perfunctory.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #7 // Review
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #7 from Boom! Studios takes a break from the ensemble-based format of the first six issues to focus entirely on Willow.
Angel #3 // Review
There’s solid work in Angel #3, but it’s a shame the book is hamstrung by the constraints of a reboot that mostly serves the needs of another book.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #6 // Review
This is another solid issue of raising stakes and adding complications in a compelling new direction for the Buffy franchise; it’ll be interesting to see how it all pays off, if at all.
Angel #2 // Review
The creative team is doing compelling work in Angel #2, but something is still missing.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #5 // Review
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #5 can’t decide who its audience is, and this issue suffers for it.
Angel #1 // Review
If this were the first issue of some brand new property, this would be a competent enough first issue, but as the first issue of a new Angel series, it’s lacking.
Welcome to the Whedonverse Free Comic Book Day // Review
Boom! Studios’ FCBD sampler “Welcome to the Whedonverse” is a great jumping on point for and a very accurate representation of Boom!’s Firefly and Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics.
