all's quiet on the comics front

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.

*Pats you on the head*

I know exactly how you feel. How do we snark when there's nothing to mock? It's a chicken-or-egg question. It's like my snark glands have a cold or something and Season 8 is vitamin C!

Ooh, someone somewhere just reported that Joss' arc is going to be called "Last Gleaming" . . . can we wank about how he totally stole that from BSG's "Kobol's Last Gleaming"? I mean, it's not like that phrase is used in some famous song or anthem or something . . . are we wanking yet? No?

Crap.

This means I might actually look forward to Eclipse because at least then I can get my snark on. Damn you, Scott Allie! I used to have principles before Season 8!!

. . . and that's all I got.

I just heard this, too. Can you spell "lame"? Sheesh. Can't the man come up with this own ideas!?

LAST GLEAMING IS TOTALLY A REFERENCE TO GLEAMING THE CUBE AND IT'S GOING TO END WITH BUFFY AND ANGEL IN A SKATEBOARD RACE FOR REDEMPTION!

Y'KNOW WHAT? JOSS IS TOTALLY RIPPING OFF TWILIGHT'S LAST GLEAMING, AND THE BIG TWIST ENDING WILL BE WHEN TWANGEL IS REVEALED TO BE BURT LANCASTER IN DISGUISE!


Okay, so I totally just used google to get that one . . . BUT DERID IS DEMANDING CONTROVERSY AND I AIM TO GIVE IT TO HER!
