It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Serenity: Better Days #3 cover . . . there's just something off about these covers, isn't there?

Simon began to wonder if he might not someday regret surgically replacing River's and Kaylee's heads with those of Cabbage Patch dolls...

I noticed on the Dark Horse site that they aren't even showing the second cover. . . like it's so disturbing that they're afraid to show it to us.

It's wrong. In... ways. Kaylee looks all hopped up on something. And River's head has been replaced by a chubby Lucy Liu.

FWiW, Adam Hughes is a highly acclaimed comic book artist, and I do think the painting technique he's using shows a lot of skill. He just happened to pick extremely freaky facial expressions for the women on this particular cover.

Yay! Doctor Who comic! Not sure about the art, but the writer seems to have Ten's voice down pretty well. And next issue seems to be a Digital Devil Saga crossover!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Dammit! I went in yesterday before my guy had my pull ready and I didn't realize Doctor Who was coming in. I only got Mouse Guard.

I guess I can wait until next week. Is the new Buffy coming out next week?

Oh, totally! I love that the comics can take us places the TV show couldn't.
