Summary: Nothing Hollow about the Hollower
Review: A monster that can destroy vampires seems like a welcome addition to the Sunnydale landscape. But the old evil which Angelus once thought he killed is back. And this time it threatens more than just vampires. The plot bridges Angel's past and present and is far superior to the artwork in this graphic novel. I have only one complaint that Mr Golden didn't save this story for a full length text novel.

Summary: Not bad
Review: To be honest, I'm not a big fan of Angel. I certainly am tired of seeing flashbacks to all the horrible things he's done because its the same thing over and over. The Hollower preys on vampires, a pretty cool idea, and you'd think its good that the Hollower eats vampires. However, if he eats a certain amount then he'll turn to humans instead. The artwork isn't too great and the story is mostly fighting and flashbacks about Angel and some girlfriend he used to have. I read other bad reviews but still bought this because the idea of the Hollower was pretty cool. It wasn't what I had hoped. Luckily I got the book on sale at the comic book store but I don't know if it would be more than what I paid for it. I wouldn't buy this again, but if you love stories about Angelus' past, this is for you.

Summary: A disappointment as usual
Review: Unfortunately the art work in this graphic novel and in the B/A comic books leaves a great deal to be desired. This is generally true of Buffy material in most categories (except my new Spike t-shirt). I wonder whether the PTB think fans of the two shows are capable of appreciating better quality art work. I also felt the plot was thin, but that is generally true of Golden's books. They are mostly one tiresome fight after another arranged along a predictable story line with no characterization at all. Of course I buy and read every novel and comic book that comes out, especially during the summer when I miss the new episodes. I find that much of the fan fiction on the net is better than the pulp offerings.

Summary: Has Promise
Review: Vampires prey on humans, but who preys on vampires? The Hollower begins stalking Angel, but could also bring him salvation.

This story was interesting but a little predictable at times and I am not overly fond of the artwork. Still the storyline will hopefully pave the way for some new grahic novels for Buffy's favourate vampire. Buffy fans will be flocking to the new Angel storyline.

Summary: Ehhh...
Review: Well, it's not terrible. The idea of the Hollower is extremely interesting, but the execution leaves much to be desired. It just kind of left me feeling bleh, you know? I'd sit down in the bookstore and read this one, but not buy it.
