RetroVision #7, on sale in May, is a special double issue focusing heavily on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Dark Shadows". For "Buffy" fans we've included a transcript of the first encounter between the show's cast and the press; interviews with series creator Joss Whedon and co-star Anthony Stewart Head; and a comparative look at "Buffy" and "Dark Shadows" (which are more similar than you might think). Heading to Collinsport, there's an interview with Jonathan Frid (Barnabas Collins), a comparison of the original "Dark Shadows" and the 1990s primetime version, which had been a part of the long out of print book "Dark Shadows in the Afternoon", and an in depth interview with Lara ("Angelique") Parker, who discusses the show and her first work of fiction: "Angelique's Descent". Plus: Retrospectives of "American Gothic", "Blue Velvet", the original "Jaws".
