I'm glad you lurk.

Having six official-like covers by you would be great. (I adore your artwork; where adore means to admire and to be jealous of all at once.) I understand you've worked in the bi'ness before, but if you need some guidance, as it were, let me know.

Cheers.

Maybe somebody already mentioned this, but didn't Buffy's series finale air on UPN, and not the WB, as stated in this article? Somebody needs to do some fact checking.

...and yes, I did enjoy Joss' "cure" storyline in 'Astonishing.' Actually, I've enjoyed his whole run thus far. Still, I think 'Buffy' had a fine sendoff, but "Serenity" wasn't enough for me...I want more 'Firefly,' dammit!

Joss, you're a brilliant writer, to be sure...just gimme more 'Firefly' stuff, dammit. DAMMIT!!!

Oh, and I wish they'd properly finish the whole "Angel vs. The Senior Partners" thing.

DAMMIT!!

Wait, another firefly comic? What are you talking about? Why haven't I heard about this? Where can I buy?

Eh? As far as I know, the potential for more Firefly or Serenity comics is just that - potential. I don't know that anything's been even seriously discussed, much less set in stone.

Evidently, from what I understood in an interview w/Joss (which of course I can't find at the moment) he and Brett Matthews have worked out a story already and Dark Horse does (naturally) want to do it... so they need to line up an artist and start getting it done....
obviously that doesn't happen over night, but I expect to hear that the first issue is coming out some time this Summer.
Maybe I'm being too optimistic...
but of course I have to be ready to jump on it since they ran out at so many comic book stores last time (I did manage to get all 9 covers because I'm a freak)

Of course this thread is supposed to be all about BUFFY's canon series Season 8, and I'm very excited about it too (but I don't think the competition for the issues will be quite as bad...).

Heehee, yes, optimistic. My meager, amateur understanding of comicy things tells me a summer release for something that's been "worked out" is way optimistic. But, hey, what do I know.... Hope away! Comics are a girl's best friend.

Yea! Season 8! Joss can start off the 1st issue by shooting Kennedy in the head.

Or maybe turning her into a vamp.

Anything to get her out of the story and stop polluting Willow's internal character conflicts.

Do not fear me. Ours is a peaceful race, and we must live in harmony.

So is this going to take place during Angel season five? And if so... is it just going to be the Buffy characters running around talking to potentials?

HONKS

Has any one read "Queen of Slayers?" I found it satisfying after buffy ended, it explains why buffy is in italy (as mentioned in angel) and various other things.
Awesome read.
