A new solo Willow series is spinning out of BOOM! Studios’ Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow will follow the titular character as she travels the world looking to find herself in the wake of recent events, even as she struggles to come to terms with the darkness that might be inside her, and becomes aware of another threat that might be more than even the Scooby Gang could handle — except, of course, this time, Willow is out there all alone.

The series will be penned by Mariko Tamaki, with art by Natacha Bustos. 

Boom! Executive Editor Jeanine Schaefer said in a statement, “Since we first started building our corner of the Buffyverse, we’ve been excited to give Willow her own miniseries—partly because she’s an absolute favorite of ours, but also because she is one of the most iconic queer characters in pop culture.”

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow will debut in June.
