all's quiet on the comics front

[deird_lj]

You know, as much as I dislike season 8, right now I'm actually missing it.

Mainly because every new issue brings many fun and snarky posts from members of my flist, plus lots and lots of crackfic.


What are we going to do to relieve the boredom until November? We need something controversial and insane to happen - so that we can all get extra snarky about it! Quick! Someone think of something!



For instance:

I HAVE JUST REALISED THAT TARA IS THE MOST EVIL PERSON EVER IN THE HISTORY OF TELEVISION. SHE'S NASTY. AND IN LEAGUE WITH MAGGIE WALSH. AND POSSIBLY SOULLESS.

DISCUSS.

Was the last wankery not recent enough for you? You needs moar?

I do think that the cracky elements are a lot of fun on their own, like Spike's steampunk spaceship. Not to mention the adventures of Peel and Steed.

I always need more. :)


(Peel and Steed?)

Faith and Giles - at the end of NFFY, he suggests they continue to work together, like Peel and Steed from the Avenger's TV show in the 60's. Apparently Emma Peel has rather a cult following to this day, although I've seen a couple of eps and can't really see what the fuss was about. Possibly you had to have been there.

YOU ARE DEAD TO ME NOW!

*dies*

(Maybe I saw a couple of duds? Because what I saw was an extremely slow-paced "action" show with nonsensical plot and not nearly enough witty dialogue to make up for it. Also, I couldn't figure out what the characters' actual occupation was supposed to be.

*checks IMDB*

I saw "Epic" and "The Superlative Seven.")

That's because Tara wrote it. ;D

That bitch! How dare she!


*goes into the Buffyverse, resurrects Tara, and then kills her again*

*dies laughing*

*unlike Tara, who just dies*

*because she's evol*

Good point. It was part of her work for W&H. You know, she was the one who talked them into hiring Lindsey - he lived just down the road from her back home.

THEY WERE FIRST COUSINS AND THEY DATED.

Plus, she fed Miss Kitty Fantastico to Clem.

The crossbow accident was ALL A PLOY.

But that's too dark EVEN for TARA-RAT!
