Lost, Twilight, Crave Fic....
Mar. 4th, 2010 10:38 pmSo, the long-anticipated Twilight Reveal happened in Buffy Comic Issue # 33 finally? Haven't read it or got it yet, because, you know, I can't. Stress fracture is still healing. I haven't made it to my beloved church in weeks, I'm hardly going to kill myself by walking ten blocks to the comics store. Also avoiding the reviews for now - no time. And I'm hoping to read the comic first...so if anyone has any links to it that I can access? Please provide.
I only know about the reveal because half my flist is commenting on it or rather commenting on the reaction of fandom to the issue which is a reaction I more or less predicted two months ago, when the reveal got leaked and I thought, frak, IDW is probably pissed right now and boy was I wrong about Whedon - I didn't think he'd do that to IDW. Should have known better. That biz is nasty. Not that I give a frig for IDW, I don't. But...anywho...I still think Hank Summers would have been a better bet all around. ;-)
( sigh, spoilers on Twilight reveal )
Anyhow enuf of that...if you want my thoughts on Lost - go here, where![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
selenak does a review of the episode that more or less states everything I thought while watching it. Also, didn't think I'd say this - but I preferred the Jack episode. Also you know there is a problem when you are rooting for the wrong team. I am. I don't like Team Jack, sorry. And this episode left me cold. It was sooo predictable and somewhat dull. I'm afraid they are following the set-up of Stephen King's The Stand - which would not be surprising since they stated ages ago in a review that The Stand inspired Lost. (sigh). Seriously, Hollywood people, you need to read a much wider variety of fiction. Hopefully, I am wrong.
Oh well, on a brighter note: Looking forward to Caprica and am off to re-read Nauti's Crave - which I'm resisting the urge to write a meta on, since you'll probably think I've lost it completely. But I love this fic, oh, I love it like you would not believe. She really delves into the psyche of the characters, and plays with how power affects people in an interesting way. This is a female fic and I so desperately needed it. While Whedon's comics feel very male to me.
