Reading my comicgeek!co-worker's August
Wizard
and there is a sidebar about the top five Buffy comic stories they want to see and two of them are just so delicious I want them to happen now.
One is Angel in Hell - the Buffy line editor, Scott Allie, says that he stayed away from that because he thought they would get into it on the show. (???Does he mean BtVS or AtS I wonder and why couldn't they still get into it on AtS? - I mean, I doubt they will, but they could.) Anyway, now he says they they feel they can do this. Yummm.
Another is Faith Year One - Allie is quoted as saying that "The first thing Joss ever wanted to write for us was Faith, but instead he did Fray." But also says that he thinks if Joss ever did do Faith - it would be post-
Chosen
and not Year One. But - personally, I think a pre-Buffy Faith story arc would rawk.
Kay. That's your reporting for today. There is also a great little Fray drawing with her talking about Firefly.
eta: Now I can't stop thinking about the before-Faith-met-Buffy thing. Can't stop. Faith dealing with her first Watcher getting all killed by Toquitos the Hoofed Vamp w/sidekick Mr. Trick. (uhm and maybe some nekkid alligator wrastlin'). Do this one! I want them to do this one! (Yeah. I know they won't.)
News from San Diego, as reported here (warning: The Angel Casting Spoiler is mentioned) at Comic Book Resources:
With Fray #8 soon to hit stores (August 6), Joss announced that a second Fray mini-series is in the works. Also, the Tales of the Vampires anthology will be coming out, and there may even be a Faith series produced (maybe that Faith Year One mentioned in tina's post?).
I'm sure CaBill will be able to fill us in on the details when he gets back from Comic-con.

Seriously? Excellent. I really dig Fray. And, as always, I am Urkonn's bitch.

With a new artist, I presume.
If not, Melika herself will have the chance to read the final issue hot off the presses.

I'm hoping CaBill can get the details on this, because it wasn't mentioned in the article. I think it would have to be a new artist, though, since Karl is still with CrossGen.

Just wanted to say: Sweet!!!!
Also - I am packing to move right now and can't move into my new place until Aug. 7 - well, I packed up my comics last night and then thought - wait! if the new Fray comes out Aug. 6, I have to have my other ones so I can read them again to get all ready for the conclusion. I unpacked the box and dug them out. So, along with my clothes and shampoo and the *essentials* I am not packing, there are my Frays. I am a freak. And may possibly need professional help.
Back.
There is a lot of maybes included in that, along with another Angel series supposedly in the works.
No mention of any specific artists.
Damn, there is a lot of messages to wade through.
Another Angel series sounds like fun.
