Canonical issues

:
Buffy comics such as this one are not usually considered by fans as canonical. Some fans consider them stories from the imaginations of authors and artists, while other fans consider them as taking place in an alternative fictional reality. However unlikefan fiction , overviews summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox andJoss Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as officially Buffy merchandise.Timing
