AfterEllen posted some great news from AssignmentX about the new season of Buffy, here’s a little excerpt:

“[Joss] said he really wanted to be involved,” Allie said. “So he has been making the time. He is writing the first issue of BUFFY, he’ll be co-writing the other issues, he’ll be editing the scripts. Pretty much the same way he did in Season 8.”

While you’re in the mood to root for Buffy, head on over to DarkHorse where they’re asking fans who would win in a fight – Buffy or River Tam? We vote Buffy, how about you?

Thanks to Aamer Kastoff for letting us know!
