Joss Whedon Enters the Fray

 
     
  No-one ever accused Buffy creator Joss Whedon of not knowing how to milk a good idea. Nope. He came up with that Buffy the Vampire Slayer thing in 1992 and he's not done with it yet. We've had the movie, the TV series, the spin-off (Angel) and the cartoon. And now...the comic book.

Like Angel, the comic book is more of a spin-off. Titled Fray it is set in the future and revolves around a future slayer who is also a professional thief. Whedon recently told TV Guide that he wanted to do someone completely different from Buffy, someone who has no idea what she is and doesn't believe in spooks.

Ooh, yes, that's completely different. Real cutting edge. Um...doesn't that character sound a little like Faith? Wonder if the comic book charactr is going to look anything like Eliza Dushku...

The eight-part Dark Horse comic book should hit stores on June 6th.
