Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Interesting news coming out of Hollywood today. It appears that the powers-that-be at Warner Brothers are out to make their Whedonless Buffy the Vampire Slayer as good as it can be, given the fact that they've turned down what's probably a quick payday to wait for something with a bit more quality. If you're gonna do it, you may as well do it right. Or at least try to.

Anyone who doesn't think Dark Horse Comics is a horror fan's best friend, especially a horror fan who collects the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics, should think again.

Ah, Dark Horse...making dreams real for all the Whedon geeks around the world daily.

Here's what you can look forward to...

The schedule for the final day of the San Diego Comic-Con is now available, and one thing we're very excited about this year is the inclusion of TV shows in the venerable Hall H on Sunday, specifically fan (and DC) favorite "Supernatural".

With the Buffy the Vampire Slayer remake talk heating up, hard-core fans still have the Season 8 comics to keep them company with the final issue coming out in just a few weeks. In addition, Buffy herself is turning 30, and to celebrate both the end of Season 8 and the birthday of the beloved character, Dark Horse has announced six Buffy Birthday Parties across the country!

It’s ironic.
