Kicking the crap out of evil in pink pleather pants

Author: MurphyPublished: Mar 30, 2003 at 9:07 pm 2 comments

I'd just like to say, I appreciate the female fantasy role that Buffy The Vampire Slayer represents.

She pouts, she has trouble with her relationships. She has the sexiest "Watcher" that could be imagined (Giles! Baby!). She has a wardrobe better than barbie.

And yet she kicks the crap out of evil! Personally! With actual kicks and punches and backflips.

She even KILLS the bad guys.

This wouldn't have happened 20 years ago.

I love Buffy.

    There's a new issue of Slayage out (#8) with an article about my favourite character Willow, and my second favourite, Spike.

    What with the series ending in May, why, oh, why do we have to endure nearly a month of repeats.

    And of course, there is Angel. Yeah, Faith! Now, there's a Slayer who kicks ass and takes names. I so loved the recent eps with Faith, and now she's on her way to Sunnydale.
