Tara ,'Empty Places'
Discussion of Buffy and Angel comics, books, and more. Please don't get into spoilery details in the first week of release.
And hey, now that Edlund's on the writing staff, I find myself re-reading early Tick and thinking "yeah, perfect fit."
Hell, yes.
My foray into the comic store resulted in my purchase of the "At Death's Door" manga. I also came quite close to purchasing Jay and Silent Bob inaction figures.
Gandolf, should I wait to see if your comic book store has the Fray?
Yes, I got your email.
Nah, it'll be days or longer before I can get to one.
ok. just the Fray then.
No, I meant, yes to both 1602 and Fray.
I think.
Yes, that's what I meant.
Whew. Got it. Read it quickly in the car during lunch. Like it.
Snowbird, huh? Interesting. Wouldn't have gotten the protector's name, ever. Not familiar with him.
I told co-worker about Rojas being Steve Rogers, and he actually slapped his forehead and said "Of course!"
I only have the vaguest of knowledge of the original characters -- but I found the comic very very enjoyable -- can't wait for the next installment.
SA, which account did you send it to, and what subject?
I don't remember. It was late last night and I was upset. But I resent it to marcontell.org.
The only ones I hadn't guessed offhand were The alleged Snowbird and the grand inquisitor, who simply HAS to be Magneto. I'm looking forward to seeing Doom and Prof. X. Since they were eluded to and not shown, I can only imagine they'll be a big deal. Also, I'm wondering who else we'll see. Snowbird is an act of brilliance, and the assasin being the Vanisher (a little known X-villain) was a good throw away. Still, I suspect Gaiman's having a grand old time proving he's as much a comic geek as anyone, so I'd expect a few more surprises.
