Synopsis[]

THE EVENT OF THE YEAR ENDS HERE!

Angel and Buffy finally confront the enemy in the heart of the Hellmouth, but the journey has already taken its tolls.

With more allies than they know, Buffy and Angel will make their final stand… and not everyone will make it out alive.^[1]

Continuity[]

The Scoobies arrive to assist Buffy after they teamed up in Buffy the Vampire Slayer No. 12. Willow also tells Buffy and Giles about the loss of Xander, as they were absent from the battle.
Buffy recognizes Anyanka, having went to her magic shop in "Frenemies."
The events of this story take place in November, as it's after a Halloween party (Hellmouth No. 5), days have passed in the surface (Buffy No. 8–12), and Giles affirms that "it's not even December."
The alternative dimension is Universe 37, which will be further explored in Buffy No. 31, the story "Trust the Process," and The Vampire Slayer series.
In the alternative dimension, Willow meets Buffy and Xander in similar circumstances and dialog from Welcome Back to the Hellmouth, Part One.
