Joss Whedon reveals future projects involving Buffy, Spike and Serenity
Joss Whedon has revealed
some of his upcoming projects, including more comics
(Buffy and Serenity), more movies
(Spike), and updates on previously announced

Shatner pitches Star Trek prequel
An Anonymous Coward sent us this
URL with an article about William Shatner’s
proposal for a new Trek TV series. It seems like it

series at this point, but he’s put the offer out

Weekly Comics Discussion – Wednesday, November 9, 2005
This week’s shipping
list has only one item I’ll be taking home, namely
Pulse #12. (Incidentally, Brian Michael
Bendis has announced that issue #14 will be his last
on the title. No word on who will replace him, or
even if the series will continue.) Other noteworthy
items include 100 Bullets #66, the first
issue of a Danger Girl miniseries, DMZ
#1, Infinite Crisis #2, JMS’ Book of
Lost Souls #2, Captiain Universe
Daredevil, Decimation: House of M: The Day
After, Drax the Destroyer #3 (a series
which is getting great reviews but less than
spectacular sales), Exiles #72, the
Fantastic Four Wedding Special, Friendly
Neighbourhood Spider-Man #2 (continuing “The
Other”), and New Excalibur #1.
Supernatural Discussion – “Bugs”
Kim Manners, the most prolific director of The
X-Files, directs tonight’s episode. Right now,
this is the only new genre show I’m aware of on
Tuesday nights, but Threshold will be moving
to Tuesdays with its next new episode on November 22.
Surface Discussion – “107”
The seventh episode of the series aired last night.
How was it?

picture up of Thomas Hayden Church as “Flint Marko.”

you’ll know exactly who it is.
