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

I have one! It's mine... My precious... I'm a greedy miser...

You could try Newbury Comics, but it's a reach, because the figure's been gone awhile. I got mine an Electronics Boutique store that was clearing them out about a year ago.

Jon, I can check my local comic shop this Wednesday to see if they have any... we tend to be somewhat behind the leading edge of the trends out here in the hinterlands.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

That would be awesome, Matt. Thanks. It would be a present for a friend. No, really!

Hey, you were there when I bought my Jesus action figure (with gliding motionTM!). I make no judgements.

Jon, I got mine on eBay.

Action figures were selling strong. I picked up a Giles figure (with book and axe as accessories) for $12. Most of the figures were $20. A "wolfy" Oz (still with guitar accessory) was $30. Anya in a bunny suit has now shot up to $60. Two more series of figures are due to be released; beyond that, the dealer didn't know what was going to happen.

I'll have to check the MAC site, but AtS season 2 figures (Wesley, Darla, and the Host) are due to be released this month. Shit. I have to preorder my case of Wesleys.

Closest thing we have to a comic thread...

Reality TV veteran Bruce Nash ("Meet My Folks") has teamed with comic book king Stan Lee to search for the next big superhero.

The mild-mannered duo will swing through town next week, pitching a fantasy-meets-reality show to the networks.

The project will begin with an open call, a la "American Idol," for contestants who have created their own idea for a superhero. Dressed as their creation, participants will be judged by a panel of celebrities who have played heroes in the past (think Lynda Carter ).

On that note, who reads Lucifer? I glanced through the first TPB and it looked well-written.

Ms Havisham reads it, I'll see if I can lure her here.

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

On that note, who reads Lucifer? I glanced through the first TPB and it looked well-written.

It was, once, but it's gotten dull. I don't know why I cling to it.

I'm wondering if the writing is intentionally mirroring the motif of the Fall, going from glorious brilliance (the miniseries that preceded the regular book) to pointless misery (the current storyline).

Jon, sorry it took me so long to get back to you about the Spike action figure. None were available from my source, though if you're in the market for Little Nicky figurines I can set you up.
