"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert

Damn - when I asked about Fray back in February at MegaCon, it sure seemed like they were going to hit the deadline. I wonder how soon they will turn the run into a collection, and how much it will cost (me, 'cause who am I kidding? I'm sure to buy it).

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

SA, check the F2F thread, most recent 40 or so.

so, it does stop at ten then? There's nothing beyond?

No, it stops at #8. However, there were intimations in the Dark Horse article that Joss may want to write more Fray stories, and other work will be coming from him, probably in 2004.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Not Fray. Sandman.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

The Sandman arc completes at 10.

Another social casualty...

Ha! Given the editor's letter in Fray #7, I was sure #8 would be late. I thought he protested way too much.

Not Fray. Sandman.

Oops! Sorry about that. The books do stop at #10, but their were spin-offs and mini-series that ran after. Not many of them are very good (excepting Lucifer).

I thought the dreams one was rumoured to be good. Augh. Can't remember the title.

Does anybody know where there is a good, reliable source for intelligent reviews of the Sandman spin-offs, or other, older series that still have impact (like Watchmen or Preacher)?

For that matter, is there any source of in-depth analysis of comics anywhere? Most of the reviews I see today aren't worth the electrons it takes to form them.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Sorry to jump in late on the new game thing, but that actually looks like Ethan Rayne in the group shot rather than Angel. At least that was my first impression when I saw the character. If it is in fact Angel, then yeah, it's badly done.

Oh, I read somewhere that Joss is supposed to be a secret character in the game, and will have the powers of all the characters, which would be amusing, to say the least.

I just picked up the original Buffy X-Box game and have been playing it this week and I've been enjoying it a lot. Ended up staying up an hour later than I meant to last night because I lost track of time. There are a few fights that are frustratingly hard and sometimes trying to figure out where you're supposed to go next is difficult (generally because you have to shimmy across a pipe that's not easily visible from a distance) but it's otherwise a lot of fun and the dialogue is very Buffy-like. And the actress they got to do Buffy's voice does a pretty good impression of SMG most of the time. Though that makes it kind of jarring when she does sound off.
