Сью в восторге от идеи, а мне вот кажется, что это выжимание денег из фанатов и ничего больше :-\ Правда, мне и от кукольного Ангела было муторно... но - в ангельском превращении хотя бы метафорический смысл был, а тут какой смысл?..
Скорее всего, ты права. Мне трудно представить как Линч впишет эту историю в канон пятого сезона. Но с другой стороны, комиксы про Баффи - не выжимание денег? Мне кажется, я не смогу воспринять "настоящую" Баффи отдельно от Сары. Это так, фанфик в картинках. Причем Джосс даже сказал, что если когда-нибудь будет снимать кино, похерит весь этот комиксовый сезон как неканонический.

Джеймс снимается в английском сериале "Торчвуд" в гостевой роли. Подробности пока неизвестны. Серия выйдет в начале следующего годаю А 21 июля он даст концерт в Кардиффе.
Daffodils, Dragons and Demons James will be playing a one-off concert in Cardiff on Saturday, July 21.
He will be appearing at The Point in Mount Stuart Square in Cardiff. Tickets cost £20 (subject to booking fee) and are now on sale from The Point. Full details of the concert are available here.
James is in town filming for the second series of UK sci-fi television favourite Torchwood.
He will be appearing as a guest star alongside leading actor John Barrowman in the BBC's adult spin-off of long-running television series Doctor Who.
Torchwood - an anagram of Doctor Who - is a secret task force that deals with alien encounters. John Barrowman plays mysterious multi-sexual time agent Captain Jack Harkness, who leads the Cardiff-based team. Series creator Russell T Davies, winner of the 2006 BAFTA Dennis Potter Award for Outstanding Writing for Television, has also written Casanova, Dr Who and Queer As Folk.
The episode will be broadcast in the UK by the BBC early next year.
THE PULSE: You're working on the first stand-alone issue in the new series. How influenced were you by what Georges Jeanty had done in the prior issues in terms of how you illustrated the issue?
LEE: I did try to incorporate some of his characters in some of the background scenes, and I tried to keep in step with his visual direction.
THE PULSE: What were some of the other things that influenced how you saw these characters?
LEE: Well, in my issue, Giles and Andrew are the main cast members I dealt with. There are also appearances from some of the "Slayerettes" from season 7. I actually try really hard to get accurate likenesses. That's one of my strengths, and why I got the gig.
THE PULSE: How tough is it to draw characters who were immortalized on television, but have to make them slightly different for the comic book universe? Do you ever find yourself slipping and maybe making Buffy look too much like Sarah Michelle Gellar? Was there even something in place that said you couldn't make them look like their TV counterpoints?
LEE: Well, likenesses are always a challenge. And, translating anything to a different medium always requires some adapting. I don't think there is a prohibition against making Buffy look like SMG, though.
THE PULSE: I know your story features one of the "decoy" slayer slayers. How did you approach that character?
LEE: I pictured a girl who was of similar build but looked different enough as to clearly not be SMG. I thought of a girl who would be your typical fan of the Buffy show. Joss wrote her with great edgy attitude. She had a subversive streak to her. So I did my best to capture that.

цитата:
Last weekend, James Marsters talked briefly, though somewhat cryptically, about his guest spot in the upcoming second season of "Torchwood" at the Fangoria convention in New Jersey.
The actor best known to genre fans as Spike in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," said he did a preliminary screening of the episode he shot in Cardiff, Wales, but since then the writers have rewritten the script which means he's heading back across the pond to finish filming his episode.
What should fans expect of Marsters, as he takes on the adult spinoff of "Doctor Who"?
His role is "going to offend some, titillate others - to the point where they would need to finish themselves off afterwards." He also said that Brits are more liberal in their approach to sex and sexuality than Americans, but wouldn't spill the beans on what exactly we'll happen during his stay. However, there were implications that something "omnisexual" was going to happen in the episode.
"Torchwood," an anagram of "Doctor Who," is a secret task force that deals with alien encounters. John Barrowman plays ageless omnisexual time agent Captain Jack Harkness, who leads the Cardiff-based team. The series was created by Russell T Davies, who is responsible for reviving the series "Doctor Who."
"Torchwood" Season 1 will air on BBC America beginning Sept. 9.

Spike Is Omnisexual For "Torchwood" - by Garth Franklin
James Marsters, best known for his roles as Spike on "Buffy" and Dr. Milton Fine on "Smallville", talked up his guest role in the second season of raunchy BBC sci-fi series "Torchwood".
Marsters tells Syfy Portal that his role is "going to offend some, titillate others - to the point where they would need to finish themselves off afterwards."
Whilst he wouldn't be specific, the hint is that something "omnisexual" was going to happen in the episode - which would fit right in with the cast as each of the five main cast members have shared smooching and love affairs with members of both genders.
Значитца, так. Это пересказ слухов, пришедших через третьи-пятые-десятые руки. По идее первоисточник - человек, который был на съемочной площадке "Торчвуда" в Кардиффе и видел съемки издалека. Слов не слышал. Снимали сцену с Джеймсом и главным героем. Действие происходит в баре. Герой Джеймса Джон Харт почему-то отбирает красивых людей, а некрасивых отсылает прочь. Появляется ГлавГер, между ними "эмоциональная сцена" с поцелуем. То, как это описывается по-аглицки и какой писк подняли слэшеры, подразумевает поцелуй отнюдь не в щечку. Потом они снова разговаривают, начинают ссориться, а затем драться, причем капитально. Снимали каскадеров, которые отлетали на несколько метров в стороны. Потом парни устают драться, садятся за стойку разгромленного бара и снова начинают разговаривать. Судя по их поведению, они хорошо друг друга знают. Такие вот дела. Повторяю, эта инфа пришла окольным путем, в открытых местах, насколько я знаю, ничего не появлялось, так что относиться нужно с определенной дозой скептицизма.

Faith's out to kill a Slayer.
Lady Genevieve Savidge is one of the most dangerous women on the planet. If she's left unstopped, the British heiress will usher in the apocalypse. Faith has accepted Giles's offer of an early retirement package for this gig -- but the wetworks will have to wait till she's infiltrated Savidge's mystically protected estate.
Now, I hear issue #5 of "Buffy," an issue with a stand-alone story, ties in some way with your work with Equality Now, at least thematically.
Well, it doesn't officially tie-in. The thing is everything I do ties-in with Equality Now in the sense that Equality Now is about taking a look at the world and the gender injustices and inequality and trying to very actively and specifically do certain things. For instance, I just got an e-mail from Jessica Neuwirth, who runs Equality Now, saying they had just stopped a couple from being stoned to death. They had 24 hours notice that these people, who have been in jail for 11 years, were about to be executed and they managed to put pressure on the government and NATO to make it stop. That kind of looking at the world and the extraordinary panoply of injustices, moving on one and choosing one, it's kind of what the Slayer army is all about, in that sense of they're addressing problems all over the world. Now, obviously mine is a fantasy and I realize that, and this issue is about one slayer who has a particularly difficult task, but it actually is a very personal story in a weird way. It's not about what it's about, exactly - it's kind of a metaphor, something new I'm trying! I can't really explain it because if you explain it before people read it I think the experience isn't as pure, but yeah it works on a political level because pretty much the scenario that Buffy is working under does, but it's also very personal.
Now, as I understand it we'll see stand alone issues every fifth issue of the series, right?
Yeah, the basic structure of the season is going to be a four-issue arc, then a standalone, and so forth. It's great for me because it allows me to pop-in from time to time. I did issue #10, which is the one featuring the contest winner from the MySpace contest. It was a joy to write. In fact it was such a joy to write that I was three pages over the normal length. I could have really used a couple more pages, but I couldn't do that to poor Scott [Allie, "Buffy" editor].
Oh, I'm sure Dark Horse would bend over backwards to accommodate you, if need be.
They always have. They've been extraordinary, including working on and helping fund this Equality Now auction. Dark Horse has jumped through hoops for me and Scott and I have become e-mail buddies to the point where my wife is asking questions. [laughs] I don't like to abuse that, though. It was just an example of how I can't stop Buffy and Willow talking. I love them so much! ....................
OK, so Brian's first issue stars Faith and is a four part story. How has Faith changed since we last saw her?
It's a very Faith centric story, so it steps a little to the left of the main story, although that's a part of it, it folds into it, but it really is Faith's story. Where we find her is not really in a great place. Because she's so hard core and always has been, she's been doing some of the nastier jobs and it's starting to grate a bit. Brian writes Faith beautifully - her patter and her attitudes are spot on and with Georges Jeanty drawing her, it's Faith-a-licious.
How's Buffy taken the General's revelation that members of the human race have declared war on her and her friends and associates?
Oh, they laugh and laugh and that's it!
I'm sure.
Since the next story arc is Faith's and dealing with the next huge thing, we don't spend a lot of time exploring how she feels about that, she's just trying to figure out what exactly they have up their sleeve more than reacting to it emotionally. At the end of the day there's this cult - and I should mention because people have been getting it wrong that it's not the American military. There is a military wing involved, but it's more global and shady than that, so this is not a book about hating the Army or anything like that. But, after the Faith thing, Buffy will be dealing with it on a lot of levels, asking who it is that really hates her. I don't think she really believes the entire human race is out to get her, but some things are going to happen that are going to make things, well, what's that word I love? Worse.
It appears from the end of issue #4 that Buffy has access to some of Willow's magical abilities? How does it work? Is Buffy casting spells? Or is Willow actually casting spells through Buffy?
In that instance the idea was simply that Willow had given Buffy a little hit so that in case something did happen, because they knew they were up against Amy, she gave her a little protective mojo. It's not something I plan to repeat that often because it could get too convenient and that's sort of what separates the two of them. However, as we did in episode 21 of season four, making that connection between them really highlights the strength of their friendship, so I like doing that.
Wrapping up, Joss, have you heard from any of the cast of the show about the book? Are they reading it and have they given you any thoughts on it?
I just saw Aly yesterday and Tom Lenk brought her some issues. None of the cast are really aware of it and, generally speaking, you don't want to show the actors it because they'll just go, "Hey, that's not my nose!" Aly was like, "I guess that's an OK picture of me, but I seem kind of big!" And Tom said, "That's Dawn, you ninny!" [laughs] But, no, I haven't really heard anyone's opinion about it and [whispers] that's probably best! They are being beautifully rendered; don't get me wrong, I wish someone would draw me looking that hot.
Джон Барроумэн, который играет главного героя в "Торчвуде", сказал в интервью:
цитата:
“James Marsters, who was Spike on ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer.’ He’s on Torchwood [in season two]. I can’t tell you very much, but he guest stars. And there’s a scene between he and Jack when they first meet, all I’ll say is, this scene is so hot, so horny, so horny, so violent, that all the fans who watch it are going [er, appreciate it greatly].”
И еще одна весточка со съемой этой самой сцены: Человек слышал часть диалога: герой Джеймса заказывает у бармена "всего - по одной порции". Очевидно, соскучился по земным радостям. Скорее всего, красивых людей он отбирал именно поэтому...
