I need a gift idea for a friend. I want to get her something comic-y because she probably won't get anything like that from anyone else. She loves anything by Dan Clowes, Love and Rockets - that kind of thing. Any suggestions?
Bar maid! Bring me stronger ale! And some plump, succulent babies to eat!

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Groening's "Life in Hell"?(she probably has them, actually)

Thanks so much! I settled on Black Hole and a few other bits I've heard her mention she doesn't have. Here's hoping they arrive before her birthday.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Apparently, LKH has signed a deal to write a script for "Guilty Pleasures."
No more info than that is available, I'm afraid. Interesting. Possibility for awfulness...or maybe (maybe?!) a guilty pleasure? I dunno.
Casting? Who would you cast for what?

Adrian Paul as Jean-Claude. They can't afford him, but Liam Neeson as early Richard.
And Mary Sue as Anita.

Richard ain't in GP.
Who's Adrian Paul?
Mary Sue...her ouevre is wide and varied. Would she have time?
EDIT: Oh, Highlander guy! I gotcha. Do you think he'd be able to play femme-sexy-masculine?
