There aren't any I can name comic, issue, writer and penciller for. But I do know something about these: 11 is Animal Man in that arc where he takes peyote and can see his artist. Terrifying to read on acid, let me tell you. The writer was Morrison, and the cover artist was Brian Bolland, but I couldn't tell you who did the insides. #13 is the Barry Windsor Smith pencilled X-Men issue where he runs with one of the Power Pack kids (Katie Power, perhaps? Was that the name of the youngest one?). I adore that cover. Just marvellous. I know I've read #25 -- it's Doom Patrol, isn't it? Possibly also written by Grant Morrison, but I can't be sure.

Ooh. #11 sounds cool.
Wow, I actually know some of those!
2: Goddess. Ennis & Winslade. Probably issue #6. 8: Lazarus Churchyard. Ellis and D'Israli. 15 I assume it's an Ennis issue of Hellblazer, only because the last panel looks dimly familiar. 19: Scars, Ellis and Jacen Burrows. Last issue again.
From online news services...
Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon is writing a new six-issue Buffy mini-series for Dark Horse Comics. The first volume is due out in October. A Dark Horse spokesperson has confirmed to ICv2 that the new series chronicles events that happened to Buffy and her friends after the conclusion of their televised adventures and will function as a "Season 8" to the highly popular cult hit TV series that ran for seven seasons...

I'm VERY much looking forward to this, but six issues won't cover a whole "Season 8".
ETA: Unless he winds up writing a book like Matt Wagner would write, and crams every page full of many panels, and much very small text.
I'll bet $10 that Spike appears on the cover of at least three of the issues.

That would be especially execrable, given he was with Angel for the next year.
One possible way to do it, is that Joss intends for the LS to be the season-opener for the season, setting up the situation and characters, along with the Big Bad.
Other LS written by other handselected writers will continue the season as in the normal manner of a TV season, allowing him to return to write the equivalent of sweeps episode/LS and/or season finale/LS
That would be awesome, Bil. I hope that's kind of how it plays out, because without Matt Wagner/Dave Sim volumes of text within the comic, six issues isn't really enough to introduce a Big Bad, let alone have various antics trying to kill it or avoid being killed by it, research things in libraries and magic shops, and eventually kill it.
I wouldn't hold out much hope for that scenario, though, as comics often overlook the value of a god build-up and just want to get to the meat.
