Hey! T came home from a shopping spree at the big comic book store and brought me the Spike/Old Times comic! The pic on the front is just yummy, but I haven't taken it out the plastic bag yet to look at the art work inside, but I will. Now I need the rest! ;D |

Hope you enjoy it M. And there'slots more out now and in the pipeline ;D Talking of, I posted the link to the crazy Spike comic news just above you, and now here's some more info: In September, IDW is coming out with a new mini series starring everyone's favorite character from ANGEL and BUFFY, Mr. William the Bloody himself, Spike.
Five issues, monthly, full color. Art by the insanely talented Franco Urro.
The writer of this mini-series is best known for writing and directing a movie for Kevin Smith about a decade ago, but who has also dabbled in writing the adventures of a talking blue monkey and the occasional naked dude.
SPIKE: ASYLUM is coming.
Yep. I love Spider-Man, and doing my quickie drive-by writing for SPIDER-MAN UNLIMITED was truly cool and fun, but playing in this world and putting words in the mouth of Joss Whedon's best character is beyond a dream come true.
You can't begin to understand how excited I am, after years of talking about ANGEL and BUFFY with you guys, to tell you this news. I hope you all buy it and like it and talk about it and don't hate it.
It's all thanks to Chris Ryall. All hail (and by THE GREAT AND SECRET SHOW)!
Excited? I am.

It's set during WW2, and we saw him with black hair on the sub, so they're going with canon. Ooh, and the comic's cover artist Eric Wight, has posted some of his prelim drawings leading up to the final cover (well, he makes it sound like there's more than one). Interesting. Look here |
