One of the biggest series of 2007, “Buffy” continues to bring in new fans that don’t traditionally read comic books, according to Dark Horse’s Jeremy Atkins. “The licensed stuff is always big because it can be promoted by outside sources,” added Jim Brozman, manager of Graham Crackers Comics in Illinois. New developments in 2008 include a four-issue story arc written by Drew Goddard, a writer with the Buffy TV series on episodes such as “Selfless” and “Lies My Parents Told Me.” Launch date: January 2008.
