Weekly feature: What to buy.

I'm going to start a new weekly feature. I'll show you one collectible per week (props, comics, statues, etc etc).

Some ordinary that you can buy in any comic shop, some uinque, some cheap, some expensive. Whatever I find browsing the internet.

I'll start with something I'll buy myself soon.

Tradepaperback for Fallen Angel: Reborn

For those of you not in the know, this is a tradepaperback that's just released, and it collects a few issues starring our own Illyria, as she during Season 5 of Angel visits Bete Noire, a town of depression and darkness, where she meets up with the Fallen Angel. As I understand, the comic can be read as a stand alone, so you can follow even if you haven't read the rest of the Fallen Angel issues, but just in case, read more about Fallen Angel here.

I've followed Fallen Angel for a while, and I can't wait to get my hands on this. Peter David, who writes Fallen Angel, has written about Illyria before (Spotlight:Illyria) and he did so quite well.

Glamour

A great artist just linked me to her/his Willow&Tara comic (that also features the other Scoobies). It's very well done, and the dialouge is very entertaining, and the art is wonderful.

Warning for some nakedness tough.

GLAMOUR

Weekly feature: Excerpt from original script

From the episode Helpless(Buffy, season 3), when Buffy suffers from loss of slayerness, due to Giles and The Council.

Buffy lists the merits of becoming a non-Slayer in this exchange cut due to length:

BUFFY: I mean, there's a plus side to being a regular girl. The whole not-bleeding-and-killing-and-dying experience.

WILLOW: As for example.

BUFFY: Then there's buying outfits without worrying if they're good for bleeding-and-killing-and-dying in. There's a lot of good to it.

Once again, Buffy quote provided by The Watcher's guide (vol 2. in this case).

Oops.

Turns out the site with Spike bytes I told you about in the last post does have some non-Spike clips, further down.

Check it out

"Someone isn't worthy"

A member over at slayalive taught me to Buffy-ize my computer with different soundbites. Now when a pop up window get's blocked, the Spike quote "Someone isn't worthy" plays, and when a programme closes, Spike says "We are finished here, ducks". Those are just a few of my new computer sounds.

I just went into the control panel and found the sound section and went nuts.

I use this site for Spike clips (thanks for the link Alexiness).

Go to the forum thread for more info on how to do it in case you need help. I needed to figure it out myself since I had a Swedish version, but the instructions on that page might help you.

And for the love of God, don't forget to save the new sound settings, like I did the first time.

EDIT- Turns out that soundsite had non-Spike clips further down.

Weekly feature: Excerpt from original script

From the season 2 of Angel episode, Guise Will Be Guise (the ep when Wes pretends to be Angel and get's some action).

Cut due to length is this scene in which Wesley meets a woman at Caritas and tries to express her with his understanding of the demonic world.

WESLEY: ...might seem bizarre due to their very demonogenesis, by which I mean that they originate in a culture that stands outside and yet-

Cordelia tugs him away from the woman, toward the door.

WESLEY: I was having a conversation!

ANGEL: Wes, that was a Tarbo demon who was about a minute from plunging an ovipostor into your navel and spitting a larva into your colon.

WESLEY: Oh. Heading home, are we?

God, how fun that would have been to see. They should have dragged her out and killed her tough.

Spike promo

Keep reading in case you don't know anything about who Twilight is (and want it to stay that way):

This seems to be a promo for the up-coming Spike series. The line "Summer 2010" makes me both happy and desperate.
