BUFFY's third season is hard to beat. Pretty close to perfect. Unfortunately,
over the next four seasons, that level was proven impossible to maintain,
and everything pretty much fell apart in the seventh season.

ANGEL started strong and, excepting the introduction of Connor, which did
not work for me, maintained a level of excellence that, while perhaps not on
the same level as B3, nevertheless sets the series as a whole above BUFFY as
a whole.

I must say that even though I have only seen

a couple of pages already, I am incredibly psyched to

see this series come out! It looks awesome!

Just like to add: TV Show or no, in my opinion JB

will make these characters his own!!

Angel is yet another subject that I have no history with -- but boy am I excited to read the JB issues! Nice pencils, JB! :)

Today I made a staggering discovery. There is an amazing dearth of David Boreanaz
reference on the InterWeb. Page after page after page of pictures -- some fake porno! --
but seemingly only about a dozen actual shots, and most of those head-on.

This series just became several degrees more challenging!

You need to know where to look JB. Here's a link to a Buffy website that might help you out. I promise. It's a clean link.

Thanks, Gil -- but notice that those are pretty much all as I describe --
head on shots. And mostly posed headshots, at that (like most everything
else I have found on the Web) which means not a great range of expression.

What I really need is some BUFFY/ANGEL equivalent of THIS!

No problem. Yeah I noticed. I had a really terrific site that seems to have gone away. This one might work for you though.

You're working too hard, Gil! Much thanks! Want me to name a vampire
after you?

I am totally unfamiliar with Buffy or Angel but from what I have seen in the samples, I will definitely try to get this. I can see a new style in the making, an artist taking risks and experimenting with different techniques, are you 19 years old Mister Byrne?
