From Sally: "But I still don't think Avon would've gone to Terminal for
Vila's sake ..."
Maybe only if Avon had a lock to open and Vila was the man for the job. I
think Avon would miss Vila.
I agree about his relationship with Cally that it was something special even
if never beyond the platonic (in canon). Avon had a thing about protecting
whoever was with him. Think of all the explosions or shootings where he
covers his crew member with his body (ie: Dayna, Soolin, Blake).

I ordered the Avon figure and it's awfully cute. It came in pieces - you
have to attach the arms and then paint if you wish to paint. The maker even
puts in a personal friendly note. I'd love to see more figures available,
even to have everyone available eventually.

Dana,
I have a great reference book: BODY TRAUMA: A WRITER'S GUIDE TO WOUNDS AND
INJURIES by David W. Page, M.D. It's from the "Howdunit Series" in the
Writer's Digest Book Club, but may possibly be available elsewhere. It's
not futuristic, but it does cover the basics of what injuries look like, how
to treat them, what problems might be happening that aren't visible, etc.
I found it useful for checking on laser burns for my heroine and a broken
elbow for my anti-hero. They are stuck in the woods over night and find a
makeshift way of caring for one another.

Okay. I saw forbidden lust oozing from the television screen and dripping

end I had to go and get the mop. It was disGUSTing.

Though, really, I think minds-i-view did a better version of that

You're very welcome.
Oh, and if anyone is confused by the numbering, it's simple - it's
just the order in which I scanned them in. Originally, when I'd
finished an illo, I'd make a couple of photocopies of it, one to put
in my folio folder, another spare, or to send to editor. Then when I
got a decent scanner, I started scanning them in - but I also scanned
in some older ones. So "Avon #20" is the 20th Avon I scanned in - big
ones, small tiny corner ones, all the same.
So the numbering is a mixture of chronological and not.
One advantage of scanned pictures is that the ink doesn't fade (which,
alas, has happened for some of my older ones).

You could even be both. After all, if Glynis Barber can play two parts in
the same series, so can you. Have you been practicing turning into a puddle

June 2000 -Blake's 7 graphic novel style comic strip featured in the
newly launched APE Magazine!
Read about it at The Aquitar Files - the B7 Webzine
(http://www.aquitarfiles.org.uk)
What is APE Magazine?
You could describe it is a magazine which features fiction, art,
poetry, pop lyrics and more...written by young, unconsciously hip and
mostly London-based writers. Loulou Harris went to the launch party
in a converted warehouse and was surrounded by dozens of very arty
types in existential black and a couple of rock bands of such
breathtakingly fringe cool that she had to make apologies and leave
for the familiar coziness of a salsa club.
This was young, hip and literary London that was too iced to bother
about looking or sounding cool, just honest, raw, enthusiastically,
almost geekily arty. If you can be that way. Loulou and hubby were
hopelessly out of place, being totally out of practice at small talk
with people who don't want to talk about ecommerce...
How did Loulou or Blake's 7 come to be associated with such a wildly
out-there and dangerously poetic publication?
Well, one of the editorial team, is an old friend of Loulou's and saw
Loulou and Reba on that infamous "Lost in Space" documentary about B7
fandom, in which Reba spoke so eloquently about the reason for the
popularity of fan fiction. He was actually quite taken with the idea
and thought it would be exciting to have a B7 comic strip in APE
magazine, since the age of readers ensures that they will all have
fond memories of B7. So he asked Loulou to write a B7 story in graphic
novel format: the rest is history.
What? Blake on the front cover?
Yes indeed. Look out for it in WHSmith's, Borders, the MOMA in Oxford,
the Institute of Contemporary Art in London. "Blake's 7" is written on
the front cover of issue 1 and there's a picture of Blake too...
What's the story?
Written by our very own Loulou Harris, this is a four part story which
begins with a PGP Avon imprisoned and at the mercy of Federation
psychiatrists. Issue 1 features Part 1 - parts 1, 3 and 4 are original
stories - part 2, many Aquitar Files readers will recognise as a
version of the story "In the Lattice of Memories Which Intertwine",
part of "Between Life and Death".
How much?
Price £3.99. It will be on the shelves a while yet and when the
retailers return unsold copies, you'll be able to snap copies up by
mail order.
Is it worth it?
Hey, Loulou is doing her best to entertain here. The 4 part story will
feature angst, A/C, A/S and V/Soolin romance as well as Loulou's own
take on some of the events PGP which lead to Avon's re-invention as a
Federation agent 20 years later. And the rest of the magazine is
terrific too, but it is very different to what most of us conservative
sciffy fans are used to and it ain't Jane Austen, okay?

Perhaps it's because *my* mind works in strange ways, or perhaps it's because
I've come to expect eccentricity from Penny, but I interpreted her to mean
the "Adromedan Invasion Fleet" literally.
Said with utmost respect and admiration, I think she'd make a great eggbeater
battle cruise. She could pick up the battered but repairable Travis and
they'd... <bleep> <bleep> <bleep> ...ever after, except on the first
Thursday of every month, which is when they'd do laundry.

<sniffle> How wonderfully romantic. But we'd also need some wednesday
afternoons off, to go shopping for basic necessities such as leather polish
and new batteries.
The batteries being needed for the lasers, of course, you bunch of perverts....

Why? Avon's not a homicidal maniac (we don't actually see him shoot anyone
until Orac regardless of what image he might like to project.) and Jenna
poses to threat to him. He would have no reason to kill her. If he was going
to do that then why suggest it to her in the first place? He knows enough
about the computers to get Zen to fly the Liberatore to a suitable planet -
he could have killed her there and then. Besides I've always thought that
Jenna and Avon were quite alike, I could see the possibility for attarction
there - imagine them as co-rulers of their own wealthy pleasure planet - an
establishment to rival Space City... :)

I just checked Amazon and they have this book and others in the Howdunit
series on sale for # 8,79 (sorry, my keyboard doesn't have the pound sign
on it and I don't know the ascii code). I ordered this one and also Deadly
Doses by Serita Deborah Stevens and Anne Klarner, which is (you guessed it)
about how to poison your characters. In case anybody's getting worried now,
I'm only going to be using it for my writings.
Honest.

I've seen this done before, in the Twilight:2000 post-WW3 roleplaying game.
I forget who the artist was, but he did a damn good job (and I could have
fun playing 'spot the source photo' - recognised a few from the Vietnam
war). It's a very effective technique, as Kathryn's examples show.
Any chance of doing Cally in that style? (Please. Pretty please. With
sugar on top...)

Can I count that as a willingness to buy a Blake model?
That would make three people out of the five needed. Basically, Ian is willing
to make any character from the show as long as he's guaranteed to sell at least
five of them.
Judith
PS. For the faint-hearted, I have a son who's a keen wargamer and has lots of
practice in assembling models. He'll do the assembly for those who just want to
do the painting part, and will paint for those who just want to have a model
without all the hard work.

Me, me - I'd have one of each happily (and yes, I'd love to take up the
offer to assemble/paint, my arty-crafty skills would have to grow to be
non-existent). Also if there's a chance of a Vila ... but definitely Avon
and Blake.

I've been very, very busy. Art shows, cons, and now my brother getting
married to a woman the rest of my family can't stand, and I get to stand
next to her in an ugly bridesmaid dress (I know, redundancy in the dress
description). Actually, working on a filk might be just the thing to
cheer me up. Except I probably need to buy a new VCR (old one's busted)
in case I want to describe some outfits or scenes specifically in the
song.

You've just reminded me that there's an Australian band called The Wet
Phibians. I find I can't listen to their track on whichever of the Unearthed
compilations it's on without imagining dark tunnels and so forth...

Not at all unusual for me. But then, I scared my husband last night
while I was playing at being Sam Vimes.
Some of us are just naturally good at playing sour-faced types.

Yay! The illustration to Judith's story "Shane" is there! I'm very fond of

moment.

Wow. Have I missed some great bit of trivia here? Which
mutoid was played by the Soolin actor?
