Aww, man. I have an alarmingly tacky desire to make a RIP Jim Aparo image using that iconic panel from DitF, but I'll refrain on account of it being alarmingly tacky.

I would not be alarmed, nor would I think it tacky. Also? I think he'd appreciate it.

GC, I am wonderfully, insanely jealous.
Oh! Another cool sketch I got was a Giles drawing by Eric Wight. He was to be the animator on the Buffy cartoon. It rocks. Eric also did all of the drawings for Seth's comic on The OC. He's great.
