I am pretty sure it is straight reprint of the Jonathon one-shot of a few years ago.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I didn't see it. I've only ever read Fray, and that was all this year. So the on-line version, super cool.

I was packing stuff for my move, and I found that I have an extra copy of Fray #2.

The first person to contact me at my profile address who wants it gets it.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

So, has anyone else played the new Buffy video game, Chaos Bleeds? I've got some rather, well, strong, opinions about it versus the first one, but I don't want to go on a tirade if no one else gives a damn about it.:)

(Edited to clarify which game, since there's also the Buffy RPG which is an entirely different animal.)

move out and draw fire

No, but I finally got to play the Buffy RPG.

I also borrowed V for Vendetta from a friend, since finding a copy of my own was proving impossum-able.

It's pretty magnificent. Though it's in an odd place for a masterwork, since I don't think there's a definitive version. The early eps were drawn and printed as black and white. Then it was finished being drawn to be colored, and the early issues colorized. It definitely looked best in black and white, and there's no version (at least last I checked) that had the whole thing in black and white.

(goes to get it out of the bag)

All color, but washed out color. Kind of like newsprint. This tpb is 1988.

(puts it back in bag so nothing bad happens to it while I'm not reading it)

I traded Kavalier and Clay, and the first issue of 1602 for it, although he gets to keep K&C.

I think you can only get the original b/w from Warrior - the brit mag which kicked off Alan Moore's career with V, and Marvelman (nee, Miracleman).

Conventions count as other media, right?

Recent entry in Peter David's blog, upon his return from DragonCon

For reasons surpassing any claim to sanity, I agreed to co-host "Iron Artist" again. I was teamed with James Leary ("Clem" from "Buffy") who proved to be a talented improv guy, which is what you need when you're trying to keep an audience entertained for close to an hour while you're literally watching paint dry.

I only got to see one panel the entire weekend: A Buffy cast panel. Danny Strong ("Jonathan") is an extremely funny guy. At one point James Marsters was asked if he was anything like "Spike," and Marsters replied, "Yeah. Spike is the part of me that you get if you f*ck with me." And then Strong piped up, "Same with me! When you f*ck with me, you get Jonathan!" This of course got a huge laugh, and Strong continued, "That's right! You get a short, cranky Jew...oh. Wait. That's actually me. Never mind."

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

And then Strong piped up, "Same with me! When you f*ck with me, you get Jonathan!" This of course got a huge laugh, and Strong continued, "That's right! You get a short, cranky Jew...oh. Wait. That's actually me. Never mind."

BWAH!!!

Damn. I love him.
