SPOILERS! Ok, so... I was just wondering if other people have read this, what their feelings are about it, etc. I was a few days late on it but didn't see a thread here & sort of thought it merited one. I'm not really a graphic novel person, there's a lot about the format I don't get. But I have to say I was pretty interested to read YES! ANOTHER SPOILER WARNING! on the most recent AfterEllen that Buffy slept with another slayer--Satsu (female). http://www.afterellen.com/blwe/03-07-08 REALLY FINAL SPOILER WARNING: (which is 4 more than AfterEllen gave) the AE article shows ALL the relevant panels. Okay? Okay. ![]() Beyond thinking, oh god, poor Faith, I hope she's out of the country when she gets wind of this... it's getting a lot of coverage. Like: the New York Times had an article about it. Serious. (Experimenting in Bed When Not After Vampires, George Gustines, March 5, 2008): http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/05/books/05...r=1&oref=slogin Interview with Whedon here (Joss Whedon: Buffy #12 and the Whole Series, Matt Brady, 3.6.8): http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=149216 ABC coverage, which (ahem) chose a front-page placement for the story to debate whether it's just a commercial ploy or a legit development [110 reader responses so far], is here (Buffy's Romp: Marketing Ploy or Part of the Plot? Despite Critics, 'Buffy' Creator Says Sex Scene Was Part of the Story Line, Emily Friedman, March 6, 2008): http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/story?id=4396156&page=1 MTV: http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/1582835/story.jhtml (they also have a new interview [I think it's new, I couldn't get it to play on dial-up at home) w/Amber abt doing lesbian kisses in Buffy). http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?vid=214230 Ok, posting all those links exhausted me. |

Totally fascinating. Not just the comic (and it's Whedon so no big surprise there), but the press reaction. I wasn't at all sure the NY Times would even know what a "graphic novel" is. |
