Everybody's seen this, right?

In case you're wondering what the heck you're clicking on, it's a link to the Joss Whedon/Jo Chen 3 page 'epic' web comic. The tale is slight, the art's lovely, and no one's 'ship is harmed. In fact, mine gets a definite boost.

Thank you, Joss.

This is a real comic?

[shapinglight]

It's an e-comic. If you go to newly_legion, though, Moscow Watcher has screen capped the pages.

It was fun, but the wedding scene looked weird without a groom.


The Judge got fat, though.

but the wedding scene looked weird without a groom.

But it's a dream. Dead as a dodo Warren can be in a dream, can't he? Also, the Spike/Angel stuff sort of reminded me of Dawn of the Dead.

Sproing??? :)

[shapinglight]

Yes, it's not really that romantic a sound effect, is it? Maybe Spike and/or Angel is just terribly bendy, or was wearing braces?

[elisi]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

::DIES::

And just when I thought Joss had lost it completely... OH, it's going to take WEEKS to get this smile off my face! :D

[shapinglight]

Yes, it's great, isn't it? :)

[kathyh]

The loud thud was my jaw hitting the desk and then the shrieking was me howling with laughter *g*. That was delicious and the artwork is lovely.

[shapinglight]

Isn't it just? Have to say, this has made my day - and great icon.

So wonderfully silly. Be still my Spangel heart. *g*

[shapinglight]

Be still my Spangel heart. *g*

I know how you feel. :sighs happily:

[hello-spikey.livejournal.com]

nah, Joss has just figured out that while Bangel fans hate Spuffy and Spuffy fans hate Bangel, both sides have no problem with Spangel!

And really, who would?? :D

[shapinglight]

both sides have no problem with Spangel!

Hmm, I don't think that's quite true. Never mind, though. They had their turn when the show was on air. It's the Spangels' turn now.

[sentine.livejournal.com]

It totally made my day :)

And I guess it's going to be crazy on Buffy forums ;)

Probably, though I'm sure those who really loathe it will grit their teeth and pretend they think it's funny.

"I'm a very clean boy."

"Maybe you need to be cleaner."

LOL! WIN!

*faints, now*

[shapinglight]

Hee! It's good isn't it. I am still squeeing, though in a slightly more qualified way. Bad thoughts!

[angearia.livejournal.com]

I know with all the excitement of Angel/Spike slash, some people might have missed the most notable slashing of all - puppet/demon slash. Witness the birth of Kenny and puppet!Ratio's lovechild:

Eeek! It's hideous! Also, Clem looks really sad.

[yourlibrarian]

I'm so glad Jo Chen did the art for this. Spike and Angel look lovely.

[shapinglight]

They do, don't they, though I think she's drawn Angel rather better than Spike.

[mere-ubu.livejournal.com]

Heeeeeeeeeeee! Hoo boy. Thanks so much for linking to that--I would have missed it entirely! Poor Buffy, but it's awful hard to resist the charm of Joss-sanctioned Spangel naughtiness.

[shapinglight]

but it's awful hard to resist the charm of Joss-sanctioned Spangel naughtiness.

It is. I've had some horrid thinky thoughts since yesterday, but I am still squeeing, if a tad more quietly.

[mrs-underhill.livejournal.com]

OK, I should have posted my insane glee here rather than in your next serious post. :)
So here it is: SQUEEE! Spaaaaangel! Pretty Spike and Angel! "I'm a clean boy". "glide, tickle"! They gave us as much as they can get away with.
And: I told you guys so - trust in Joss, doesn't dissapoint in a long run. :)

Also, just found out both Jane Espenson's Buffy and Brian Lynch Angel comics are coming out today. I'd have myself some Jossverse revival - as Star Trek was eating all my brain lately...

[shapinglight]

I hope you enjoy them, Nata. And I am still squeeing, though rather more quietly. Interesting what you said on Whedonesque.

[diachrony.livejournal.com]

Oh, thanks so much for the link!

::Sigh:: I do so love Jo Chen. Buffy's expression in the last panel ... just perfect.

[shapinglight]

The art is great, isn't it? And poor Buffy. I don't often feel sorry for Comics Buffy, but I do this time.

[rahirah]

Alas, this just makes me wish Jo Chen were the regular artist. :/

[shapinglight]

Yes, it's a pity.

[ringthebells]

Oh wow, thanks for sharing. I would've been devastated to have missed that!

[shapinglight]

It's great, isn't it? Though having slept on it, I've had some thoughts, which is annoying because I would rather just squee!

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh, thanks for sharing with us, darling. This put a big smile on my face ^^.

[shapinglight]

I'm glad to hear it. It's very pretty, isn't it?

[rebcake.livejournal.com]

I intend to commend Joss for his tip o' the hat to the slash magic! Still more evidence that he is one of us! Except he is compensated more handsomely. I absolutely understand why Buffy is going there (we are she and she is we and we are all together), but when it takes a turn for the Warren, I do feel sorry for her brain being against her. Poor thing really does need her Wheaties after that, I'd say.

[shapinglight]

Yes, and of course since posting this initial squee I've had a lot more thoughts about everything. Sad, really, but I did enjoy the squee while it lasted.
