Now tagless for your comfort.

Thanks, Jon. I nearly had a heart attack until I read the first link.

My comic shop had to re-order their re-order.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

The Buffy comics have certainly helped cement Joss as being able to use comics to tell a story and it be highly profitable. I'm not surprised the run has been extended to 50 issues (4 years!).

Tell you what, that makes me very, very happy. I was hoping for maybe a year's worth of comics. This is just fan-fucking-tastic.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Wow. That's fantastic!

Is JW committed to overseeing the entire run, or just the first X issues?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I can't imagine he would let it out of his control now.

Well, there were plenty of Buffy comics while the TV series was running that he had nothing to do with.

Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, but they were mostly not good.

That\'s my point, Sumi.

Yeah, but then he had the series to point at and say "That's the real Buffy, and I'm doing it." Now, the comic is the only real Buffy he's got to do. He can't let other folks do it unless he trusts them, because the comic is all the real Buffy there is coming out.
