Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

We've got new Buffy AND new Angel tomorrow!!

That's a helluva post to see on April 1 if you forgot to notice you were in the comics thread...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Buffy: Did we know that the Fray weapon could de-Slayerize ?

Angel: I'm not sure how I feel about the format - kind of disjointed if they're keeping up the switching from story to story and in a more content related issue: didn't Connor remember his real and his fake past in Home? Perhaps I should re-watch. (Probably would have been a good idea to re-watch prior to starting Season 6 anyway.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I was a month (or more) behind in picking up my pulls, so I'm not sure when Angel #5 came out (which is why I'm about to whitefont), but I'm confused by the Fred/Illyria thing. But I'm assuming that I'm supposed to be confused.

In Angel #6, I loved the Lorne segment. Art, writing, everything. Actually, I'm loving the writing overall through the whole series so far.

Buffy #13 just made me giggle, with the whole Xander and Dracula friends4evah thing going on. Andrew made me laugh, too, especially with the George Hamilton from Love at First Bite costume.

The one thing in Buffy #13 that I violently dislike was Willow asking Satsu how Buffy was in bed. I'm sorry, but that is so massively out of character that it made me throw up in my mouth a little. Willow would never do that. She just wouldn't.

I totally agree about the Willow thing.

Steph, on the Angel # 5 question, I think once they get back to this storyline they will answer it, but my guess is the sickness Spike's been referring to re Illyria is bits of Fred leaking back in.

I thought that maybe because LA was in Hell (or some sort of hellish dimension), that Illyria was no longer inhabiting Fred's body, much like the way Angel is apparently not a freaking vampire any more (and what the HELL is up with that?!?).
