Covers for Angel #4:

Illyria and Spike

Also a synopsis of the upcoming Spike vs. Dracula mini:

Presenting the first chapter of a five-part Spike saga spanning centuries! A hundred and twenty years ago, a tribe of gypsies inflicted a terrible curse upon the vampire known as Angelus... a curse that brought a terrible vengeance upon the tribe in the form of Angelus's family: Darla, Drusilla, and most notably, William the Bloody, a.k.a. "Spike." But the gypsy clan has a dark and powerful supporter: Count Dracula. Outraged over the slaughter of the gypsies, Dracula seeks revenge upon the three vampires... and thus begins a rivalry between Spike and Dracula that will cover decades. A rivalry steeped in blood... honor... and eleven quid. Corroney will also provide covers for all five issues, as will variant cover artists Zach Howard, Sean Murphy, and Eric Wight.

The covers:

1
2
3

I think I like the second one the best.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, 'a curse that brought a terrible vengeance upon the tribe in the form of Angelus's family: Darla, Drusilla, and most notably, William the Bloody, a.k.a. "Spike."' is more than a little revisionist. I know it's his comic, and all, but please.

I know. It's kind of a major change to make in the story.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I like the little sepia picture of Jilli on the first cover.

Aaaand I just realized I need (NEED, I tell you!) someone much more skilled with Photoshop than I to crop the little sepia image and turn it into an LJ icon for me. Because that would be even funnier.

Jill - I cropped if for you -- but I can't do anything fancy with it.

(And I sent it to your profile address.)

Jili, how's this? I reframed it a bit, just to the portrait.
