Warning: The following article contains spoilers for Slayers: A Buffyverse Story.
Summary
In the follow-up series "Slayers: A Buffyverse Story," it is unveiled that Buffy and Spike have had no communication since the events of the initial show, effectively eliminating any chance of a reunion. Spike makes the choice to remain in a parallel universe where Buffy is non-existent, ensuring that they do not reconcile.
In the sequel series of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," the love story between Buffy and Spike, which played a significant role in the original show, has seemingly come to an end.
Instead of continuing their relationship, the new audio series, Slayers: A Buffyverse Story, takes place 10 years after the original show's finale and focuses on Spike's encounter with an alternate reality version of Cordelia Chase. In this alternate reality, Cordelia is the only Slayer, and Buffy never existed. Audible released this sequel series, providing updates on various characters from the original show, including Spike.
Slayers: A Buffyverse Story Confirms Spike & Buffy Have Lost Contact
: The absence of Sarah Michelle Gellar in her iconic role as Buffy in the Audible series didn't prevent Slayers: A Buffyverse Story from acknowledging her character's presence. As the narrative focused on Spike, the episodes skillfully unraveled the fate of both him and Buffy after the conclusion of the WB show. Unfortunately for their passionate fanbase, the 2023 audio series shattered any remaining hope of a future reunion between Buffy and Spike.
The Slayers: A Buffyverse Story episodes, which premiered on October 12, 2023, revealed that there has been no contact between Buffy and Spike since the end of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series. This was not unexpected, as Spike had sacrificed himself in the final episode before being brought back to life in Angel. Despite previous hints in the comics that there was a possibility for Buffy and Spike to reconcile, the 2023 sequel definitively closed that door. Buffy and Spike have not communicated in years, and the conclusion of Slayers: A Buffyverse Story seemingly eliminated any chance of a reunion for the couple.
Spike Is Now In Another Reality, Ensuring He & Buffy Won't Get Together Again
In the finale of Slayers: A Buffyverse Story, Spike chose to remain in an alternate reality devoid of Buffy where Cordelia is the sole Slayer. The Audible series showcased Spike, Clem, Giles, and Indira venturing into this parallel universe, and ultimately, Spike concluded that his life was preferable there than in his own reality. His primary objective in the alternate world was to assume the role of the King of Vampires, seemingly as a means to thwart Drusilla, effectively extinguishing any chance of reuniting with Buffy. It is with sadness that we must accept that the love story between Buffy and Spike, which originated in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, has reached its definitive end.
