Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

"Hey, the shirts all have numbers!" Buffy S6 vibe from it, though.

Feeling lost (no italics or capital) and stupid. Please enlighten, Gus.

I wonder if all the Jack/Johns have something to do with the English trickster/traveling hero tradition, where the protagonist is always a Jack. Makes me think of Fables where all Jacks are one Jack.

Pretty much what he said, lib. At the beginning of S6 all the characters were wearing shirts with numbers on them. It was apparently a Random Fashion Statement by the costumers, though it caused a lot of wasted speculation in fandom.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

English trickster/traveling hero tradition, where the protagonist is always a Jack.

I knew a guy who wrote a Jack book along these lines, set in contemporary society, titled Jack Acid.

Deena! Did I know you read Fables ? You are awesome.

I don't think our Jack seems like the Jack the Giant Killer type. Charlie, however, could grow into that role of reluctant adventurer.

P-C, I don't think I'd mentioned it before. I love Fables. It's awesome. GC also turned me on to Courtney Crumrin who is my hero. I read BoP when I can find them/have the time. Also went through a Fantastic Four stage, though I haven't read any for a while. They're my childhood favorites.

Nora made me giggle.

I think the Fantastic Four were my first comic book characters. I had a little storybook, maybe with a cassette. This would have been in elementary school sometime.

Hey, Deena, let's you and me start calling the monster The Adversary.
