Terminology

Main article: Canon (fiction)

'Canon' of a fictional universe comprises those stories considered to be genuine (or "official") and those events, characters, settings, etc., that are considered to have inarguable existence within the fictional universe. Usually items that are considered canon come from the original source of the fictional universe while non-canon material comes from adaptations or unofficial items. Generally, Expanded Universes are not considered canon, though there are exceptions that are considered near-canon. Using the religious analogy of a canon of Scripture, things that are not canon are considered "apocryphal". See Biblical canon. When a body of work is not specifically accepted or rejected by an authority, 'canon' can be a fluid term that is interpreted differently by different people. This is the case with 'Buffyverse canon', which has yet to be publicly defined by an authority to the satisfaction and consensus of all fans (see also: links to Buffyverse canon debates). In the context of fiction, the canon of a fictional universe comprises those novels, stories, films, etc. ... Expanded Universe material (e. ...

Canonical comics

A few of the comics are considered by many fans to achieve canon.


Tales of the Slayers and Tales of the Vampires are usually accepted as canon. They were written by writers of the Buffy and Angel television shows. Joss Whedon told a number of tales for these comic series. Other writers include Amber Benson, Ben Edlund, Jane Espenson, David Fury, Drew Goddard, Doug Petrie, and Rebecca Rand Kirshner. Note: This is not to be confused with the Tales of the Slayer prose short story volumes. ...

Fray, an eight-part comic series written by Whedon, is also largely accepted as a canonical work. The story is about a vampire slayer of the future named Melaka Fray and her discovery of what being a slayer means. In the Buffyverse, it seems that a powerful scythe used by Buffy will be found in centuries to come by Melaka. Whedon has also written an Angel comic book mini-series, Long Night's Journey.

Non-canonical comics and novels

The vast majority of comics and all of the books are largely viewed by fans as non-canon. // Introduction Buffy trade paperbacks. ... // Introduction Buffyverse original novels fit into one of four categories. ... Canonical is an adjective derived from canon. ...


Despite this, they have been licensed as official Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Angel merchandise. Furthermore Whedon or his office have had to approve the overall outline of each book if not the final product. This is to prevent the stories venturing too far from the original intentions of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel stories (see below).


Joss Whedon's participation in novels and comics

A number of comments by Buffyverse writers have indicated that although they know they are not writing Buffyverse canon, overviews for their stories may still have been checked over by Whedon.


Referring to Whedon, Christopher Golden said "He has to approve everything. I should say, his office has to approve everything, so sometimes he gets more involved than others in doing those approvals" [1]. He has also commented that he finds "the mythology to be inspiring. Joss has specifically said he's not really interested in exploring that mythology very much. Though he is, apparently, willing to let us go into it." [2]. "There are times in both books and comics when I know he has gotten involved because the word, sort of, comes down from him." [3]. Similarly Peter David, was asked about his comic, Spike: Old Times, "Did you get any input from Whedon himself?" He replied that "Ostensibly comments came from Whedon, although for all I know, it was from an associate." [4] Christopher Golden is an American award-winning, bestselling author of such novels as Wildwood Road, The Boys Are Back in Town, The Ferryman, Strangewood, Of Saints and Shadows, and the Body of Evidence series of teen thrillers. ...


Jeff Mariotte has revealed more detail of the approval process: "I come up with a proposal that's eight or ten pages long and I submit that to Pocket Books. They read it and if they like it then they submit it to 20th Century Fox and the Buffy office. If everybody approves it then I can get to work. ...If I proposed doing something that was counter to what they wanted the direction of the character to be, they would tell me." [5]. Mariotte implies that little input is given, only acceptance or rejection of general ideas: "In the world of licensing there is a difference between 'approval' and 'input', and I'm not sure what the legal relationship between Fox and Mutant Enemy is. My impression is that Fox is doing everything in its power to make sure Joss is happy with what we do, and I know that Joss is looking at everything and making comments or thumbs-up, thumbs-down on stuff"[6]. Jeff Mariotte is an author who currently lives in Arizona. ...


Joss Whedon was asked "How much attention do you pay to the peripheral stuff, the novels and the comics?". Speaking of those he did not write himself, he responded "Not very much. I just don’t have time. I give them a few guidelines of things they should stay away from, things that we’re going to be dealing with or things that would disrupt the canon or things that are just antithetical to what I believe in"[7]. Elsewhere Whedon has pointed out that he has never entirely read a single Buffy novel, and has little time to devote to such material. He therefore knows little of the final product, or of their quality control. Joss Whedon at the premiere of Serenity. ...


Contradictions in continuity

Usually the authors and editors of these licensed materials try not to contradict information that has been established by canon. However, many of the materials do directly contradict it. For example, according to Monster Island, Spike and Gunn meet in the Hyperion Hotel in Angel Season 3. Buffyverse canon later established that in fact Spike and Gunn meet in the Wolfram and Hart L.A. offices in Angel Season 5. These contradictions tend to be the result of the story being written before it was contradicted by canon, or due to human error on the part of the author(s) and/or editor(s).

Consistency with continuity

Some of the licensed materials successfully avoid contradicting any canon. Three notable examples are: A series of short-story volumes, Tales of the Slayer expanding upon past slayer mythology. Also, a number of graphic novels established a possible continuity for Buffy before she arrived in Sunnydale: The Origin, Viva Las Buffy, Slayer Interrupted, and Staked through the Heart. How I Survived My Summer Vacation features short stories that take place between Buffy Season 1 and Season 2. Note: This is not to be confused with Tales of the Slayers Graphic Novel. ...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a 1992 comedy film starring Kristy Swanson as Buffy, Donald Sutherland as Merrick, and Luke Perry as Pike. It was written by Joss Whedon and directed by Fran Rubel Kuzui. The film is not considered canon. In fact, many of the details given in the film directly contradict canon. The nature of vampires differs in significant ways between the show and the film. In the film, vampires do not have 'bumpy' faces whilst feeding, and can fly. However, in the main continuity of the series, Buffy's past in L.A. was a rather similar story, edited largely to fit in with the series. In the Buffy series, a similar story was followed, but several canon facts were changed.
