We had a hell of a good time playing the Order of the Stick game last night. It was more character driven than Muchkin but easier to grasp than Arkham Horror.
I want to play!
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Discussion of comics, graphic novels, and more. Except for capes. No capes!
Please use spoiler font for new releases until after the weekend following release.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I was suspicious of Mal at first because I couldn't get over Caleb
so very much this. I think I was halfway through Train Job before I finally decided I could trust the guy.
I love the way Joss resolved the Buffy and the Immortal yuck
I laughed out loud in line at the airport.
I want to play!
Are you in Los Angeles? If I get my way we'll be playing again on Thursday. If I don't get my way it'll either be the Firefly rpg or a Forgotten Realms module (Shattered Gates of Slaughtergarde) that I've been running.

Um, didn't Mal come before Caleb?

Yes Mal came before Caleb but some of us came at the Whedonverse ass-backwards.

In real air time, yes, but if you watched in some real-time/DVD combo way, not so much.
I mean, I didn't, but I can see how it might happen.

Okay, but there are limits to what Joss can be called to account for.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I think what happened was that Joss gave Nathan and Gina short-term roles on Buffy and Angel because at the time he was still trying to find a home for Firefly, and this was a way of letting his actors make a living while "their" series was in limbo, and not letting them wander off to other jobs until the final word came.

Eh, I didn't read it as calling JW to account. He reuses actors he likes to work with, and it can cause cognitive dissonance sometimes. It can also cause squee, because a lot of his fans like a lot of the actors he likes to work with. Everybody wins, even though they might occasionally be confused.

I forgot to say:
Welcome Whedongeek! How did you find the Buffistas?
