Spike: Old Wounds >
Customer Review #1:
Just Like the Show
lt;br /gt;As the titles says, I feel like Im watching an episode of "Angel." The characters are captured perfectly--though Gunn oddly gets (if Im not mistaken) no speaking lines, and just stands around. However, Tipton has got Spike down beautifully. Well, except for the three times he says "rasslin."
lt;br /gt;
lt;br /gt;Besides that little blunder, "Spike: Old Wounds" is smooth from beginning to end. The photo-realistic art is a welcome change from the art of "Spike vs. Dracula" and "Angel: Old Friends." The combination of the dialogues crispness and the art makes me hear the actors voices in my head as I read. I knew I had found something special on the fourth page, when there is a simple panel shown of the Wolfram and Hart sign and building. Its such a classic testament to the fifth season of Angel that it makes you feel like youre just seeing another episode. And thats exactly what I want when reading an Angel or Buffy comic.
lt;br /gt;
lt;br /gt;Readers Note: This comic takes place between episodes nine ("Harms Way") and ten ("Soul Purpose") of the fifth season of Angel.
lt;br /gt;
lt;br /gt;Side Note: Joss Whedon is in talks with the writer of "Spike: Asylum" about doing a canonical sixth season of Angel with IDW Comics. This is clearly inspired by the recent "eighth season" of Buffy that Joss is doing for Dark Horse. This is exciting news!
