It's from Angel After the fall, issue 9, page 11.
Look at the difference between the original sketch and the colored&inked page. Runge didn't do his own inking like with the Wesley-story in First Night, so it ended up quite differently(I'm not a hundred per cent sure he inked all the pages, but that's what I got from his e-mail). Also, the page was stretched out horizontally. It's not that noticeable on Spike, but some of the girls' faces look weird.

Here's another Nick Runge page(that I don't own). Issue 9, page 12.
Cool. I loved Issue #9 so much. Especially the Illyria/Wesley scene at the end, Gwen's x-men parody, Spike's hilarious dialogue and Alex Garner's cover.
ReplyDeleteStay tuned i'm colouring in a preview page from #23, and gonna do some more covers.
Oh and definitely love the new banner!
Thanks. Can't go wrong with a Jo Chen cover.
ReplyDeleteIssue 9 had the "Let's get away from Angel in a car"-Spike dialouge, didn't it? That was great.
