I know there was some discussion of Reading the Vampire Slayer, because Jen had a pre-publication version of it that she circulated. You might also try searching the Attic using the phrase "Reading the Vampire Slayer".
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

"You got twelve, and they got twelve. The old ladies are just as good as you are." -Dr. Einstein
"I just picked up Reading the Vampire Slayer and Fighting the Forces. I know they're kind of old news."
I enjoyed them both (and there is a third similar volume in the works but the title escapes me). My favorite chapter in RtVS was Laugh, Spawn of Hell, Laugh, which dealt with the wide variety of humor used in Buffy.
I also read Topping's two books on Angel and Buffy, and Bite Me! by Nikki Stafford (which includes season six). Less meat in those more fannish volumes, but reviews of episodes which are fun to agree/disaree with.
I'm also reading a bio of Albert Speer, so I do read non-Buffy books now and then.

I am Jack's total lack of surprise.
Has anyone heard if they are planning to release another Watcher's Guide?

"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert
Just wanted to drop in to mention that a new Tales of the Slayers: Broken Bottle of Djinn one-shot should be in the stores today. I think it features two stories, one about a Slayer in 1930s New York, and one about Buffy. The authors of the stories are Jane Espenson and Doug Petrie, so we should get relief from the craptacular Scott Lobdell for a while. I'm off to the store now to pick it up.

That's a regular comic, right Jeff?

Yes, it is a regular comic (although it is priced at $3.50). I found it to be too short, which is a good thing.

Yes, it was part one - - very short. Do we know if Jane Espenson is writing all of them?

How'd you like them, Jeff? As good as the other Tales
