Tales of the Slayers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Oscar nominee Joss Whedon is one of Hollywood's hottest writers, having scripted several hit films and created one of television's most critically praised shows, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Last year he debuted Angel, a new series combining supernatural adventure and dark humor in which David Boreanaz and Charisma Carpenter reprised their roles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Whedon earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Screenplay with Disney's box-office smash Toy Story, starring Tim Allen and Tom Hanks. His big-screen writing credits also include the feature film Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Alien Resurrection. He has also worked on the screenplays for the runaway hit Speed, Steven Spielberg's action-packed adventure, Twister, and 2000's summer blockbuster, X-Men. This summer Whedon is expanding his creative endeavors and pursuing his life-long dream to write a comic-book series  by teaming up with Dark Horse Comics on the eight-issue miniseries Fray, a futuristic tale based on the supernatural mythology he created for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Whedon is married and lives in Los Angeles.
