There's never enough Jilli images on the web.
You know what? I think I officially just don't get Everybody Loves Spike. He gets comics, pumpkins, talk of a TV movie, and in the active portion of BtVS and AtS fandom, you'd think both shows were, in fact, called Spike.
And, I'm confused, because to me, he was an entertaining character who grew tiresome with overuse. So I'm not likely to buy a comic, or watch a TV movie, or read what feels like 90% of the fic out there.
Is this what it's like to not like chocolate?

Plei I think it's like not liking Wolverine.
Scola, bless your memory.
Is this what it's like to not like chocolate?
Yes. (Although in the case of chocolate, it's not that I don't like it. I just don't like it enough to actively seek it out and buy it.)
At the comics shop a few weeks ago, a guy was practically wetting himself with anticipation over some Spike special comic, and got all crestfallen when he was informed that the only copy they received went into my file (the owner knows I'm Angel fan #1 in that city). I didn't even look inside before telling the clerk it was his if he wanted it.
Plei I think it's like not liking Wolverine.
I gather he has the same sort of pull for Marvel fans? Which reminds me, I need to see if my library carries The Essential Wolverine, which I hear has issues I need to read as part of my Jessica Drew thing.
Yes. (Although in the case of chocolate, it's not that I don't like it. I just don't like it enough to actively seek it out and buy it.)
That's what I figured. And it's probably as annoying to see a dessert menu that's 95% chocolate for you as the Spike thing is for me.

As far as the revisionism in the Spike vs. Dracula thing, don't we see Spike, Darla and Dru killing off the gypsy tribe that cursed Angelus on the show? The way the description reads to me is gypsies curse Angelus, Darla tries to force them to remove the curse, but Spike eats her last hostage and she ends up killing the tribal leader, Dracula gets pissed off about the gypsies being eaten and wackiness ensues. Only the last bit isn't canon.
Did anyone happen to see this?
All I have to say is that if the old Batman TV series could have done this, they would have.
The old Wonder Woman TV series essentially did.
