Ha! Didn't think so, but it gives me confidence that you know what you're doing with color!

JB- You said Angel would get to "play" Angelus during the series.  Any chance you'd later follow up with a series where we get a focus on Angelus and not Angel?  Either way, looking forward to the story.

Somehow, a series about Angelus would probably end up darker than Blood of the Demon was. The prospect excites and frightens me.

If memory serves Angel spent more time as Angelus than his later souled self.  Lots and lots of untapped story potential there.  .

I agree. I think Angelus would get old, very fast. A key character element in
Angel is conflict, and Angelus never seemed particularly conflicted!

Like Angel said about Angelus in the episode about the politician's son who made men go mad with misogynist rage: "Angelus" (and Angel) no longer had any hang-ups about anything like race or gender. He worked through that shit long ago (the Judge even said there was no shred of humanity in Angel, even though Spike and Dru reeked of it)

I take it you mean Angelus and not Angel in that parenthetical remark, Knut. Just so as to not add confusion to the uninitiated. ;)

Of course, Joakim. They called him Angel even as Angelus in that season, but I meant Angelus.
