There are two kinds of "Tales of the Slayers".
Yeah - I was confused too - sorry. I thought Ken was just asking about the Vol 2 and 3 of the short stories. Vol. 1 of the short stories has none of the TV writers either, but it is pretty good.
Simon: I swear when it's appropriate. Kaylee: Simon, the whole point of swearing is that it ain't appropriate.

I can't even.
If anyone is a fan of Bill Willingham's The Sandman Presents "The Thessaliad", he has written a sequel (first issue came out this week) called "Thessaly: Witch for Hire". It's off to a promising start.
Glad to hear it. I met Bill at a small con back when he was doing the Elementals (mumble-mumble years ago -- Good God, it's how many?), he is a real hoot. He and George R. R. Martin got everyone telling Most Embarrassing Moments stories. George's was hilarious. Good times.

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.
Bill Willingham is currently undergoing a sort of renaissance at DC.
His Vertigo title, Fables, is very popular, and he was just given the DC superhero title, Robin, last month.
Be interesting to see what he does with that...

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Thanks all. I definitely went for the comic book Tales compendium, which I heard has an additional Fray story, so all is good.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Is he behind the new "Monolith" series that's coming out?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm fiddling with a sidebar for the book on indie-comics and music crossovers. So far I've got:
Victor Banana's sdtrk for Like Velvet Glove Cast In Iron
Dame D'arcy singles
Aimee Mann's "Ghost World" song.
I seem to remember Alan Moore doing something for V for Vendetta. "This Vicious Cabaret"? Something like that.
Anything else come to mind? I'm trying to stick to indie comics here since there are a berjillion Superman songs.

I don't believe so. It is a DC mainstream title that has as its major influence the Jewish golem stories, rather than elementals...

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
There are several indie comix types in Boston who are also musicians. Ron Rege, P Shaw, and Jef Czekaj immediately come to mind. I'm sure there are others.

move out and draw fire
the tpb of "V for Vendetta" has the sheet music for The Viscious Cabaret. Don't know if it's ever been performed.
