Wait -- is that supposed to be Fray stuff on the Buffy covers?
Man, how quickly I forget.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yes! Particularly on the alternate. I'm pretty sure that is her brother and you don't recall that underwater creature ?

I do recall the underwater creature now that I twigged to the fact that it was all Fray-tastic.
I'm slow.

re: Buffy 17 cover.... !!!
Relatedly, I would love to have a composite poster or a book or something with all of Jo Chen's covers. They have been stunningly gorgeous, without exception.
waits for someone to find exception

Wow, that's cool news, sumi. Now if only they will hire some of the show's writers to do the comics!

I was at the Boom! Studios panel when they did the formal announcement.
They said they are getting the writer equivalent of Joss Whedon of Buffy/Serenity doing the Farscape comics. Not Joss Whedon himself, but the same idea...

They couldn't say for legal reasons, not all the t's were crossed off on the contracts I presume. But the implication was certainly that it was someone of showrunner importance to the show, as compared to random comic writer or even a random scriptwriter that worked on the show.
