At present, all we know is "April."  I'll see if I can pry the actual date out of Ernst and crew...

Just checked Diamond's Comic Shop Locator, and it said that one of following mail order or internet retailers should be able to assist you:

35 PERCENT DISCOUNT COMIC BOOKS STORE
1185 CHARLOTTE HIGHWAY
UNIT J
FAIRVIEW, NC
(888) 366-2844
   
LONE STAR COMICS
WWW.MYCOMICSHOP.COM
511 E. ABRAM ST.
ARLINGTON, TX
(817) 860-7827
   
MILE HIGH COMICS
2151 W. 56TH AVE
DENVER, CO
(800) 676-6423

wow Pris you are totally on top of this thing. But I do have a question. are these comics self contained? What I mean is will what happens in the comics influence whats going on in the books or are they stand alone?


Edit- just a side thought am I the only one who reads welcome to the jungle and hears the song by the same name playing in the background? Then again maybe I just need more sleep

I checked with the proprietor of the shop where I buy my Buffy comics.  He's carrying it, and currently has the cover as the wallpaper on the store's computer.  Safe to say he's a fan (he's reading the books as well and is up to Death Masks, I asked).  He put it on my order so that when it comes in he'll throw it in the mailbox that I have at the store (yes, I have my own mailbox, don't judge me).

My guess is that they'll be treated like the short stories.  They work as stand-alones, but occasionally you'll catch a mention in the text, like Harry's reference to Billy and Georgia's wedding in Proven Guilty


****************
Yeah, Jim's like the folks behind LOST...all the extra stuff is gravy, but all that's required reading is the main stories.

(I, of course, am not Jim. This view is subject to change by him chiming in with NO! BUY! EVERYTHING! THERE WILL BE A QUIZ LATER! ESSAY! GRADED BY MONKIES!)

What's the expected interval for release for the following issues?  One, two, three weeks or a month later?

As I understand it, it's monthly.
