Are they?
I noticed that instead of a little picture of Fray on the corner with the issue number - - that this issue had the Dark Horse logo. Is that a sign of a new regime or something?
Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

A Dark Horse rep said that was a plan on a retailer forum I am on a month or so ago. Not sure if the plan has remained the same.
Dark Horse has been putting the horse head on a lot of their titles recently. Just a design change.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
So how many Tales of the Slayer comics are out? I've got the graphic novel, and Vol. One of the short stories, but I'm talking about the current serial. I've got the first one, with Rachel O'Connor. Are there others?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My comment on this issue: Umm, did anything happen?

It really isn't a current serial, SA. The reason they labeled the Rachel O'Connor issue (with the fabulous Gene Colan art) is that Dark Horse may issue more one-shots, but it won't be on any kind of regular schedule.
There is a Vol. Two of the short stories. I'm reading it right now. So far, I'd have to say they have been mildly disappointing, but I'm only about halfway through. I did like the Tale about a medieval Japanese Slayer, though.

Remember, no detailed discussion for a week, according to the thread blurb. I do have a bit to say about this issue when the time comes.

I don't consider that detailed at all. It's just a general thing which people have brought up about previous issues, that I never felt so much. Until now.

I didn't mean to imply that your comment was detailed, ita. Sorry about that. It's just that I was about to go into a detailed discussion of what I thought about the issue, and then reminded myself to wait. I decided to post my reply in case others felt the same way.
Off to sleep now.

SA, no other ToS one-shots are currently on the release schedule, but supposedly there is another anthology in the works.

Ah. Thanks. That kind of sucks.
