Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I love the Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend so I was keen to get their backstory. And we even got to see Dr. Girlfriend with her hair "like that girl in Republica" that the Monarch had noted before.

I need to watch again, though, because Matilda was a crazy squirmy fuss monkey when I watched it and I missed stuff.

I thought it was a bit light on the brothers Venture.

They weren't even in it, were they?

I liked it a lot, although it was less funny than backstory-ific.

Plus "Einar's lawyers were ready to sign, but Bjork's wouldn't budge!"

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Thanks, sumi, that was great! Bookmarking it now to make sure Emmett can read it when he gets home tonight.

Did anyone notice in VB 3.1 the monarch didn't have that Red Dragon tattoo on his back.

It washed off in the shower while the hooker was escaping through the lake of acid.

I wish I had season 2 on DVD.... For shame, Victor, for shame.

VB: Again, heavier on plot than the funny. But funnier than last week.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

VB: "I've given you enough [blood] to make a Kiss comic book with."

I used to have that comic. Sold it years ago.

I think I've still got mine.
