Book of the Month
Y The Last Man Vol. 5In this final Deluxe Edition hardcover collecting Y #49-60, Yorick and Agent 355 prepare for their ultimate quest to reunite the last man with his lost love, while the person, people or thing behind the disaster that wiped out half of humanity is revealed. Then, Yorick Brown's long journey through an Earth populated only by women comes to its dramatic, unexpected conclusion.
If James Marsters will be on Hawaii 5 – 0 and sould try to see if I can go to the set , Lost sometimes had open sets and I been to a few of them and It was fun , If James will be on the show I got to atless try and met him . If I do I tell him about GSE
James Marsters is perhaps one of the coolest and most open actors I’ve ever met. Some of the Buffy/Angel actors were hit or miss, but James was fantastic. He was obviously the most popular Buffyverse star Dragoncon had year in and year out. Yet he almost seemed embarrassed about that. He got put in better accommodations at the hotel and the cast would generally joke with him about it.
Often, you would see him walking around the con, and he was pretty approachable. Between him and Aaron Douglas from BSG, I think those are definitely two of the nicest actors you will ever meet. Aaron would go drinking with people, and was a total fan himself.
well maybe i see him in a bar in waikiki
I guess it’s ok to not hate Boardwalk Empire now. It was a competitor on HBO for Game of Thrones. But now that they’ve both been picked up, I don’t have to be so brash. :)
I’m pretty stoked about Summer Glau’s new role. While the show sounds like something that will be cancelled mid-season, if it even makes it past the pilot stage, her character sounds great.
