Ugh I LOVE Nick Runge's covers.
Oh and btw, who did that cover of Kate kicking the crap outta that demon.

I totally get it. I odnt find this art bad myself, it is good, but I dont think his style fits this series. He's much more of a typical marvel/dc artist. Superheroes is huge fight scenes. Angel is alot more, how do i put this..... ''realistic'? I guess? And yeah, the likenesses are a bit off. I mean, I can tell its Angel, but I would like him to look a little more like DB. But then again, thats just Ross' style. I do like Urru's art alot better though, especially for this series.

Man, its kinda sad that people really hate the art since Ross is one of my teachers haha. I have flipped through it and yeah, I dont like his Kate, really looks nothing like Rohm at all. But his Angel is alright. Definitely not his best work. He is actually a fairly good artist(though I am not fond of this women that much. Frankly, I like the way I draw women ALOT more).
I got to ask though, I hear alot of people complain about the story. What makes it so bad? Ive read up to vol 5 so far and I have loved it all so far.
Also why dont people like Runge's art?

Nevermind, i saw it. I quite like it. I think it shows that Buffy is such a strong woman. And yeah, its very much like the season 5 promos, but really, for a piece like this, I dont think theres many other ways to do her face.

Buffy is by far the most influential thing in my life. its way more than just a tv show. this show is like a best friend, alwys there for you. i really didnt care for hs that much and this show really taught me alot and really gave me self confidence.

So I just finished vol 5,6,7 last night(I was so behind and I was so sad because of it, but now Im all caught up in the TPB) and I gotta say,whaddawhotheewomgholyfrakomggawesomeyayamazeballz!!!!! Pretty much my reaction ahaha. I am loving where this series is going except for the Xander and Dawn thing. Ew.
But my god, only Buffy and Angel can have an amazing ''scene'' like that haha.
One question though, Is there any tie in to Angel as Twilight in Buffy to the Angel series?

Ugh,Im sorry but i think this is a terrible idea. Especially without Joss and Sarah. I know some people would be fine with just having Joss involved, but I honestly think they at least need Sarah too.
And I hate how they compared this movie to Nolan revamping Batman. Its completely different. Batman is a comic character first and formost. He's a drawing, theres not specific actor who is Batman. Buffy is a live action tv series that lasted for 7 seasons and there is one face that belongs to the name Buffy, and thats SMG.(And yes I know that Swanson was technically the first Buffy, but c'mon, we can't seriously count that.)
Id much rather have an animated series/movie at this point. At least that way, even without Joss' total involvement, we can still has the original characters and have the voices of people who sound like the original cast or just the orignal cast themselves.
As a hardcore, die-hard Buffy fan, I am saddened about this news. I will say though, that I want them to get to casting just to see who they have in mind for the role, but after that I hope the movie dies(unless they want SMG back and she accepts because she IS Buffy. Nuff said). Im a Buffy fan first and formost,dare I say more so than I am a Joss fan, but I truly beleive Joss should have SOMETHING to do with this,even if its just like the comics and just giving his permission. But I know I'm going to be against another girl as Buffy, but that is just me.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but im glad to see some ppl were taking a liking to Ross' art. He's one of my teachers so I think its awesome people like his work.

Honestly I think the dst figures were the best likeness so far. They got the eyes right but she has a really tiny forehead though it may just be because of the flat hair

I love graduation buffy, I would love one of those for my collection so much. I also like the faith sideshow. The Faith slideshow is a hit and miss. Shes got great clothing and accessories, but the face really doesnt look much like Eliza. I have it regardless since Faith is my favorite character.

TMZ might be a little trashy, but they're usually very reliable. I'm sad about this Poor Xander.

I switched my display around. The top level is the same, the first shelf is now the ''couples shelf'' and the second is just my other four figures. I dont have a lot of figures because I dont have the money, if I did, mine would be over flowing with Buffy figures. (And that little flesh coloured thing is my vampire prospthetic face piece that I used for Halloween when I was Angel. Cut and shaded to my liking.)

The only ones i have in the box are my Sideshow Collectable 12'' Vampire Buffy and Faith. The packages are just too nice to take the figures out of.
I have all my 6'' figures on display though. They have their own shelf beside my bed. The shelf has 3 levels.
At the top is my 2 Sideshow Collectable figures, the ''Women of Sunnydale'' set of cards and a homemade stake a friend made me. The first one is Buffy (Which consists of Chosen Buffy, Chosen Willow, Graduation Day Buffy Deluxe figure, Bad Girls Faith, Lessions Dawn, and New Moon Rising Tara.)
Second shelf is my Angel display.(Consists of Destiny Angel, You're Welcome Cordelia, Parting Gifts Wesley, Shells Illyria)
And the third is my very tiny collection of Doctor Who figures.
I'll post picks later.

DST's Faith figures were pretty meh. I got the ''Bad Girls'' Faith. I mean, its alright, you can see a resemblence to Dushku, but it could have been so much better.
I think DST's best Angel(or at least one of the best) is the Season 5 Angel. I really wish I had picked it up.
