Just a reminder that the Buffy #61 is supposed to be in stores today. It is part 2 of the 4-part "Stake to the Heart" arc that deals with how Buffy reacts to Joyce's and Hank's divorce, and is the last regular arc for the series.
Inara: I think she looks adorable. Mal: Yeah, but I never said it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
A honkin' spoilery hint from Neil's Journal:
And then I wrote. The middle of 1602 part 7 seems to have gotten over its hesitations (I tend to stop a bit before killing a major character, trying to see if there's any way out. I don't do it with relish until I have to)
Who? Let the speculation begin.

Color me excited. From the darkhorse site:
Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer , regroups with the writers from the hit TV show to examine the monsters who?ve challenged the Slayers through the ages. Kicking off the new series, Whedon teams with one of comics? hottest new stars, Catwoman artist Cameron Stewart, for a look at what happens when disaffected youth turns to vampirism. Also Drew Goddard brings us the story of how Drucilla (of the infamous Spike and Dru) went crazy during their time in Prague before reigning their terror on Sunnydale.
Get an early taste of Tales of the Vampires in Drawing on Your Nightmares, featuring Brett Matthews (Spider-Man/Wolverine) and Sean Phillips (Sleeper), on sale in October.
The only thing is - Goddard is writing a story on how Dru went crazy in Prague?? Don't they mean *more* crazy?

He'll have to something pretty effin' special to overwrite Fay's Prague stories in my head.

Yeah, we'll just have to hope he lives up to the Ultimate! part of his name.
And could you tell me where I can find Fay's Prague stories?

Fay's Prague stories (and quite a bit more)
Time here - as everywhere - had wrought its changes, but in Prague these changes felt fewer and less substantial than in other capitals. The pastel shadowed alleys still curved into one another like the curlicues of an Alphonse Mucha maiden's tresses and many of the buildings' facades retained their antique grandeur, or had been charmingly restored; but in the few years since the Velvet Revolution Coca Cola signs had blossomed on every street and the ubiquitous McDonalds wrappers were starting to rustle underfoot.

I can't even.

Nice! There's a certain implied creepiness in that blossoming and rustling that makes you feel those objects are as evil as the corporations they represent. It gives me the skin-crawling feel (and I mean this in a very good way, honest) of the VampireNation underculture in the Blade movies.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Fay's good at that.
You'd never know she was such a sweet and soft little thing from reading her. Bless.
