Buffy's 8th season

 

Finally, finally, finally there are news regarding Joss Whedon's 8th season of Buffy on comic book form from Dark Horse. The book comes out in March of next year and will be penned by Joss with help from one of my favorite current writers Brian V. Vaughan of Y The Last Man and Ex Machina fame.

If you haven't read or are familiar with the above mentioned series then I feel for you, as they are absolutely amazing to read! Do yourselves a favor and pick of copies of either (both are on TPB form in bookstores) and be prepapered for some amazing stuff. I'm not the only one who thinks so.

But I digress, back to the Buffy comic, not sure how Vaughan with his other projects next year will have time for it since he recently announced in his Myspace page that he has also been hired as an Executive Story Editor by the fantastic television show LOST. For that matter, Joss is supposed to be busy himself in 2007 scripting the Wonder Woman feature screenplay following his run on Astonishing X-Men.

More power to them I guess, it will be interesting to see how our favorite denizens from Sunnydale will fare in the 8th season, but with Joss at the helm of this project, at least we know that there are a few surprises ahead for the readers.
