Mmm. Still probably worth picking up, yeah?
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert
I thought so. I still have four or five stories left. I will say that two "current" (meaning stories about Buffy) are included in this collection, which is another break from the past volume.
Has anybody else read the collection? I tend to buy most things Buffy, so my objectivity isn't the greatest. I will go on record to say that I have not liked most of the tie-in novels (I found The Book of Fours an egregious waste of paper, for example). YBMV.

Fray #8 is written and almost completely penciled.
(from joss) Thank god.

"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert
I've finished Vol. 2 of the Tales, and I have to say that everyone should at least read the final story, written by Jane Espenson. It concerns the core Scoobies and is set in Sunnydale. I won't say anything more for fear of spoilage. Go to your local store and read it there, if you have to.
Later, I'll try to put out a review of both volumes here.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
That's a book-book, not a comic-book, right? (i.e. no pictures?).

Yes, Jon. No pictures at all, not even the cover.

I am buying this RIGHT NOW. AIFG!
And - upthread folks mentioned Y The Last Man. I just finished the 1-5 TPB and I loved it - am waiting for a friend of a friend to loan me the rest. (Though I just read that 6-11 TPB comes out August 13). I am relatively new to comics and was just blown away by this.
And Hi - by the way - I delurked in Buffy a while back but have never posted in any other thread.

My wife & I read the 1-5 tpb of Y: The Last Man just last night. We both dug it lots.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I read 1-5 of Y, too, and I think there's a very Buffista-ish reason for why Yorick survived. Hint: It's all about the monkey .
