Last week might as well have been declared Joss Whedon week at your friendly local comics store, what with new issues of Buffy s8, Astonishing X-Men and Runaways. (I only started reading Runaways when Joss started writing the book; I believe he’s only doing half a dozen issues, but judging by the first two he’s going to pack an awful lot of quotable fun into his run. You might enjoy taking a look at his run when it shows up in a trade paperback a few months down the line. Or hit the back issues while they’re still relatively new.)
