I can send a link to the comic if you want. But yeah, Buffy is nothing like Buffy. It's irksome, but that's been true of all the comics. Even in Whedon's, she's a brainless sociopath for the most part. In this, she doesn't dress like her, doesn't talk like her, doesn't have her personality... I can't help but be bugged that the writers don't ever seem to have anything to say about her, either.
Much like there was a point to Willow, there was an even bigger one to Buffy. She was the blonde, personable, popular, fashionable, preppy-ish girl that gets hacked up in an alley in horror films. Helen from IKWYDLS (I don't think it's a coincidence they lifted angles from that movie for Helpless). To change that, is to not be Buffy Summers. Even Giles, he's kind of like a wikipedia version of him. He's more S3 Wes than Giles. About the only character that is much like their TV counterpart is Xander.
The art is great (save the blue eyes whhyyyyy). That's about it.
