Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I suspect she's another slayer. One we meet at the beginning of this particular arc.

I found the first cover more recognizable for Buffy and Faith. It could be because the same artist has done her enough I recognize the style. I didn't like the Faith on the second cover at all.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

A woman buys stolen Jack Kirby artwork from Avengers #1.

At a garage sale for $2.00.

Which she then gives to her daughter to color.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Holy crap! The other comic looks like an old EC horror title...

Thank god that they caught it before the daughter started coloring on them.

Y'know what really bugs me is the report's continual use of the word 'sketch' to describe those comic book pages. Not appropriate, not by a bloody long shot.

Ha! GF, who is an avid comic art collector, also took issue with the word 'sketch.' She made mouth noises every time they said it in the clip.

For the Serenity RPG fans amongst us...

  • Margaret Weis Productions has expanded its Serenity license, and will release three Serenity RPG products next year. Early in 2008, it will release a collection of short adventures; late spring brings Six-shooters and Spaceships, a ship and technology sourcebook; and the Big Damn Heroes Handbook is slated for next summer, probably as a GenCon release.
