There's very little discussion on LJ or any of the Buffy/Angel forums I frequent about the comics that Dark Horse has published in the past that are set in the Buffyverse universe, while not being a direct continuation of either of the two shows. .
If Wikipedia and Buffy Wiki are right, they are canon. Well, Fray (definitely canon, due to the crossover with season 8) and the compilations Tales of the Slayers (with characters that are referenced in "The Chain") and Tales of the Vampires (at least one story is referenced/followed upon in season 8) seem to be.
In fact, Dark Horse have actually continued to release comics like this during season 8, only now they were loosely putting them under the season 8 banner - like "Tales of the Vampires: The Trill" one-shot and the web-comic "Carpe Noctem", both of which would work as a part of another Tales of the Vampires book. Or for that matter, "The Chain", which despite being a numbered issue, would fit in the Tales of the Slayers (except that it's better than most stories in that book).
So, have you read any of those comics, and did you like them? Would you like to discuss them?
