Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You really think that after Firefly, they and Mutant Enemy are going to work together again so soon? Not so likely.

Except Joss does have a production deal with Fox Studios, and I'd figure FBS would get dibs on anything he pitched. He'd probably have some say in that (either discouraging the deal, or insisting on a certain level of control and commitment. I'd expect the latter.) I think Joss owes Fox three or four more shows at least though I'm not sure exactly how the production deal is structured. When Bochco had a similar deal it was for 7 shows straight up.

Some news on the Fray front:

Scott Allie, the Buffy editor at Dark Horse, has posted some messages on the Dark Horse boards. Here is what he had to say about Fray

"What can I say, guys? Sorry, sorry, sorry. As some of you know, Karl is working fulltime at another company on a monthly book. He entered into this deal before finishing Fray, so we've been trying to get the book finished as soon as he can. He's now NEARLY done with Fray #7, so I really really believe it will be out in April, and at the rate he's going, Fray #8 should be right behind it. Joss is almost done writing Fray #8, so hopefully the whole thing will be done before the big cons this year. The ending is really good, so hopefully the end will be worth the wait."

Thanks Jeff.

I speculate based on no info that Joss is waiting to see how/if BTVS ends this season before finishing the last issue of Fray.

I could see that. It was probably fairly clear in his mind before he started Fray, but if BtVS is going off the air, then he might be willing to tip his hand more in Fray about certain things.

I love Fray. We have a big Fray poster in the foyer. I'm looking forward to these two issues.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

There's a Fray poster in the bathroom of my comic book store.

It's actually rather disconcerting...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The idea of going into the bathroom at many of the comic stores I've patronised disconcerts me.

They're just not places I want to think about genitalia.

For me, it's the usual hygenic state of such bathrooms that's disconcerting.

The bathroom at my store is surprisingly tidy. But then, my store rocks.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
