Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Missing in action since 2002...

What, you're saying that naked Angel is filled with Hope? Wow, you people are slashy-minded....*g*

Well, the actor did go to QaF...

To every idea a shelf...

Ok, the talk about losing the ring reminded me of a question I've had for a good long while. What's the necklace that Angel used to wear? I think of it as his "not-a-cross", but is there any actual significance to it?

Well, pure speculation on my part, but it always looked to me like a Cornucopia/Horn of Plenty charm. They're shaped like a stylised horn. The Cornucopia is a mythological goat's horn that overflows with fruit, flowers etc. It's a symbol of prosperity and plentifulness.

Hee. I said horn.

I have no idea what necklace you guys are referring to. Which, considering the amount of time I have spent drooling over calmly considering DB's chest in various Buffy episodes...let's just say I find it upsetting. I used to know these things! I did!

Xander also used to wear a medallion of some sort in the early seasons. Does anyone know what that was?

You mean he had the charm to summon Sweet all that time and just never used it?

And we called it an asspull.

The above was a joke, if it's not completely obvious.

I just got an email about that, sumi.

Wonder why they delayed it?

When was it supposed to come out originally?

I think it was announced, than de-announced, and now it's being re-announced. I didn't preorder when it was first announced, so I'm not sure what their original release date was.
