Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an American franchise which spans several media and genres.
 It began in 1992 with the film "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", written by Joss Whedon and directed by Fran Rubel Kuzui, and was resurrected as the television series, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" in 1997.
 The show's popularity caused it to spawn a multitude of Expanded Universe tie-in material such as comic books, novels, and video games, as well as a spin-off program entitled "Angel".
 In 2007, four years after the television series' seventh and final season, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" was officially continued in the comic book "Season Eight".
 The following is a list of minor recurring characters who appear in the franchise.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow & Tara is a trade paperback anthology collection published by Dark Horse Comics in 2002 and based on the television series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".
 The volume collects three issues focusing on Willow Rosenberg and Tara Maclay: "Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow & Tara - Wannablessedbe", originally published in 2001 as a one issue special, and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow & Tara - Wilderness", originally published in 2002 as a two issue limited series.
 It also adds a story from an "extra" issue.
Faith is a fictional character created by Joss Whedon for the television series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".
 Played by actress Eliza Dushku, Faith was introduced in the third season of "Buffy" and was a focus of that season's overarching plot.
 She returned for shorter story arcs on "Buffy" and its spin-off, "Angel".
 The character's story is continued in the comic book series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight", and she also appears in apocryphal material such as other comic books and novels.
 Faith was set to receive her own spin-off television series after the final season of "Buffy", but Eliza Dushku declined the offer, and the series was never made.
 The character later co-stars in the 25-issue comic book "Angel & Faith" beginning in August 2011 under the banner of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine", the story taking place mostly in London and the surrounding area.
 Seven years after the character's creation, Whedon granted her the surname Lehane for a role-playing game and subsequent material.
 The last issue of "Season Eight" was the first source officially confirmed to be canon that referred to Faith by her full name.
Angel is a fictional character created by Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt for the American television programs "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and its spin-off series "Angel".
 The character is portrayed by actor David Boreanaz.
 As introduced in "Buffy" in 1997, Angel is a love interest for heroine Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar), a young woman whose destiny as "the Slayer" is to fight the forces of evil, such as vampires and demons.
 However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Angel is himself a vampire cursed with remorse and a human soul, which motivates him to assist Buffy in her duties as Slayer.
 The character's popularity led to the production of the spin-off "Angel", which follows the character's struggle towards redemption after moving to Los Angeles.
 In addition to the two television series, the character appears in the comic book continuations of both series, as well as much other expanded universe literature.
 Angel appears in the most television episodes of all the characters of both "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel", appearing in 167 episodes (57 in "Buffy" and all 110 in "Angel").
