To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I knew the rest of the stuff in your post, but I still don't think I know the answer to my question.

Ah. The split provided the first Despair. The First Despair was only killed a few centuries ago.

Art Crawl!!!

I liked the Spike'n Dru in Prague story in "Tales of the Vampires" -- do we know when the next book comes out?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Testing something.

Yes. In Angel quotables too.

One of my favorite Christmas presents was a gimongous coffee table book about the Marvel universe. It is written with much fanboy love. I had NO IDEA that Howard the Duck was a Marvel comic character!

Actual Jossverse content:

I bought Tales of the Vampires #1 this weekend. I liked it...the second Joss story (the last in the book) was good - it got lots of bonus points because of the LotR-related geekery, though.

UltimateDrew's Spike and Dru story had some really beautiful language but - for being such a HUGE part of the Spike/Dru story - (what happened in Prague right before they came to Sunnydale) it didn't really hold up for me.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Has anyone else read 1602 #5? I fee the need to squee over the tiny cartoon Neil on the first page.

And the story was pretty good, too.

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

Feel free to squee, Holli. It's been out for a while now.

I finally started taking all my old comics out of my sister's attic when I was home for Christmas. Among the boxes was my complete original set of Howard the Duck. Great book. The movie was a terrible injustice.

The movie was a terrible injustice.

One of the great things about this book is that it goes through EVERY single incarnation of the main Marvel characters with absolute detail - every bad TV show, unreleased movies and episodes. It leaves nothing out as far as that stuff is concerned. There are many a snarky comment about the HtD movie - but it doesn't keep them from mapping out what happened to the character in the movie. I've learned a lot and I've only really carefully read the Spidey chapter.
