Are they good comics? Should I buy them?
I am a massive Buffy fan, and I realise as a Whedonite and Firefly Flan I should be snapping up all his products, but I remain dubious. Is it worth it?

I eagerly await replies.

Buy Buffy Season 8.

"I told you, it's not 'Commander Harris', it's Xander. That, or Sergeant Fury."

It's a very different setup from most of the show, but it still has all the awesomesauce characters and writing. And the latest arc is OMGFaith!

Never read Fray, but I probably should.

Buffy Season 8 is very awesome. Fray was cool too, but I dont think as good as Buffy Season 8. Its a nice self contained arc though.

They're both awesome. You should get Tales Of The Slayers too.

Never read Fray, but Buffy Season 8 is *fantastic.* Some of the best comics I've seen in a long time... good writing, gorgeous art. What more do you want?

Oh, and the cover with Faith on issue 6. That alone is worth the price of admission. :smallbiggrin:

Great! So they're good.

Tales of Vampires?

Tales Of The Vampires is good - well worth a read. Not as good as Fray, S8 or Tales Of The Slayers though, IMO.

Where might one purchase the Season 8 comics?

...comic...book...stores, maybe?

Seriously, I generally pick up new issues from the comics racks at Borders. If they carry them, any major chain probably does.

season 8 is totally worth it,

They totally deliver the awesome sauce, and (ala faith , and buffy stand in) remain committed to developing new characters and old alike. Joss goes awesome with comics I think ( also a fan of what he is doing in X men, omg cyclops actually acted like the hero we all know he is, and he had to be stripped of his powers to do it, imagine that)

...I really ought to have thought of that.
I was wondering if they could be obtrained from the inter web-nets? I live in area with very little shops and such, and the "Nearby" towns have no comic stores, alas.

You live in a town withour Borders/Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble, or Books-a-Million? Wow. You must be like the saddest person ever. Sad as in unhappy, not as in a sorry excuse for a being. That's your town.
