Hellsbuttmonkey Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 try some online comic book places. Mega City Comics are normally pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptalbertwesker Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Heh the first issue was awesome, but my usual complaint of comics, it was too short, I need more! I was bugging the comic guy at my market for about a couple of weeks before it's release I think he got a little sick of me asking 'is it out yet?'

Hellsbuttmonkey Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 I loved it. Loved the Xander/Nick Fury jokes (being a big Marvel comics fan..), and the reveal that Amy may be a big villain at the end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainbowsparkle Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Like someone else said, I haven't read a comic since I was about ten, so these have been an experience for me. Mind you, I find them really hard work lol. I've had to read them several times to make sure I haven't missed anything and I've found myself wishing Season 8 had just been written as a novel instead (or even better, was on TV lol)! Still, I have to say, it's miles better than no season 8 at all BTW - does anyone else have *that* image from Issue 3 burned into their mind's eye????

killerinc1234 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 yeah love the comics could you imagine this as a movie (whoa army of the dead in the first 10/15mins) cant wait for next issues i just hope team angel turn up. after all in season5 of angel all of buffy's lot refused to help them even to save fred!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowsparkle Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Yeah - that was mean of them, not helping Fred. Mind you, I have this theory that Team Angel survived the apocalypse because ALL the scoobies (especially Willow and her powers), Slayers and new slayers turned up in the nick of time with several mystical new weapons and fought back the armies from hell AND shut down the Senior Partners. I mean, Buffy defeated the First Evil, for heaven's sake - the Senior Partners must have been a piece of cake after that! Also, I just can't imagine Buffy ever leaving Spike and Angel to face a fate like that, especially when it would affect the whole world as well. I mean, it was billed as THE apocalypse and it's still her job to save the world and now she has help! Little Spoiler in case some people haven't seen Angel Season 5 I also like to believe that Wesley was carried off to some other dimension where he is in suspended animation, right on the brink of death, until he can be cured, which of course he would be, should any other Buffy/Angel TV or movies ever happen Well, that's my view anyway...

killerinc1234 Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 i like that theory works well!!! we will just have to wait and see - - long live season8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowsparkle Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Wouldn't you love to see it on TV though? Live Action? The final, final episode where all the scoobies sweep in to help and it all ends up with Team Angel being incorporated into whatever organisation Buffy's into now in Season 8? Really, I know I've said this before, but I reckon if every Buffy fan on the planet sent Joss Whedon a tenner, he'd have enough to film that episode so we could see how it happened Hehehe, how desperate am I to see it happen?

killerinc1234 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 i dont understand the lack of funds fox knows how successful the show is the fact that the dvdboxsets are re-released nearly every year just with new packaging and sells. you would think that a tv movie that would tie in season5 of angel and season 8 of buffy would be very profitable for them to fund the project. plus with a movie you can re-release everything dvd,clothing, new figures etc and get a bigger fan base i.e do a firefly!!!!! i think for angels final ep they should have made one extra ep or turn the last one into a hour+ show just so that the battle could be shown or finished -the way they did with buffy they knew they were going to get cancelled why end it like that?????
