    Sexual Rhetoric in the Works of Joss Whedon SC (2010 McFarland) New Essays 1-1ST

    1st printing.

    Edited by Erin B. Waggoner.

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer has become an enduring feature in modern pop culture, spawning television spin-offs, rabid fans, and significant scholarly inquiry. Though there have been numerous books devoted to the work of Joss Whedon, this collection of fifteen essays is the first to focus specifically on the sexual rhetoric found in his oeuvre, which includes Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Dollhouse, and Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, as well as Buffy. Together these essays constitute a much-needed addition to the expanding body of Whedon gender scholarship.

    Spike Shadow Puppets (2007 IDW) 1A

    Brian Lynch (w); Franco Urru (a); Urru, David Messina (c) Angel once put a stop to an evil children's show, but not before being turned into a puppet during his fight. Now, fresh out of the Asylum, it's Spike's turn! Writer Brian Lynch and artist Franco Urru (Spike: Asylum) reunite for a miniseries that sees Spike and Lorne heading off to Japan to stop the latest Japanese kids' show... Smile Time! Will they become 'puppetized' themselves? And along the way, find themselves in a fight with hundreds of ninja-puppets, reuniting with fellow Asylum inmates, and be at extreme odds with one other? We're not telling (but, um, yes)! Fellow Angel-ofile David Messina (Angel: Auld Lang Syne) provides a cover of puppety variance, too! Cover price $3.99.
