Buffy Returns
To Comics
November 10, 2005
Joss Whedon has revealed that he will script the first four issues of a new Buffy the Vampire Slayer series for Dark Horse, and oversee subsequent issues. The book will take place after the end of Buffy and Angel, and as he put it in a post on Whedonesque.com, "be canon in the Buffy world." Whedon's story arc will place Buffy living in Italy with The Immortal.
Whedon also said that he's continuing to try to develop a Spike movie, but had no specific dates set.
Finally read last week's Ult. Spidey (which I think I'm alone on at this point) but I still need to whine. Why did they have to make
Captain DeWolf evil
? I like her, gorrammit!
Yeah, I think that's from a few years back, but kept having publishing problems. But hooray for it finally coming out! Assuming it really does this time.
Weren't parts of that serialized in some anthology comic (Taboo maybe?) the way that FROM HELL was, or am I just getting it confused with FROM HELL?
Anyone still reading Y: Last Man? It's moving so sloooooooowly.
I am. I feel like it's moving slowly, but I think part of that is that I read the first 4 TPBs all in a row, so now waiting a month is excruciating. Quite a bunch of stuff happened this issue. Also, I think he's trying to build up to a big thing soon.
There'd better be a big thing soon--there have only been half things, it feels like for a while. It's all
search, search, obstacle!
Tune in next week.
Starting this month, I will have a monthly column in the Comic Buyer's Guide about manga.
Congratulations, CaBil! Though personally I'd rather have you around to parse the news for me.
Alito - legalistic with Federalist slant or nutbar in mild clothing?
Rove - going down or sleezing through?
Cheney - going down or sleezing through?
FEMA - should we turn the whole frickin' thing over to the Coast Guard? How would that work in Wyoming, which is coastless?
I'm gonna take a stab at answering Hec's questions, b/c it's Friday afternoon and I'm bored. So, in order: nutbar; going down; sleazing through; underpants gnomes.
I don't want underpants gnomes in charge of FEMA.
This is why I don't turn to you to parse the news.
