Moline will be remembered for his on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer spinoff Fray, the futuristic reimagining of the Buffy-verse he co-created with Joss Whedon. He was also one of the many artists involved with CrossGen Comics, the publisher that lit up the comic book industry from the late ’90s into early 2000s along with Scion and the horror book Route 666.
