Life can be hard when you're the chosen one. Harry became the only hope the Wizarding world had without ever asking to be special. He was dealt this hand and forced to deal. However, Harry isn't alone on his hero's journey. A few months before Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone came out in the UK, Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired on TV here in the US. Much like Harry, Buffy was chosen to become the Slayer at a young age. Through this panel we will compare and contrast the trials this hero and heroine face through his and her respective seven year journey. From the friends who stuck with them through and through to the losses each face from losing their mentors, we will spend this time seeing how similar these two series are to each other.
