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.

(-8 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).

Cheers, Una ___________________________________________________________________ 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?

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... :) Dorian - "You mean you're here by choice?" ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2000 08:43:37 -0400 From: "Christine+Steve" To: "B7 Mailing List" Subject: Re: [B7L] Other peoples mail Message-ID: <009f01bfd46b$e6f70200$14259ad8@cgorman> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit ----- Original Message ----- Sally Manton added : >> Neil wrote: > > > Probably. > > And there are plans to breed you with IMIPAK ... > Then you'll be chased by a large headless man and develop a weird deep voice.

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. Drinks, anyone?

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...)

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. -- http://www.hermit.org/Blakes7 - Fanzines for Blake's 7, B7 Filk songs, pictures, news, Conventions past and present, Blake's 7 fan clubs, Gareth Thomas, etc. (also non-Blake's 7 zines at http://www.knightwriter.org ) Redemption '01 23-25 Feb 2001 http://www.smof.com/redemption/ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2000 14:11:39 PDT From: "Sally Manton" To: Blakes7@lysator.liu.se Subject: Re: [B7L] Model of Avon and possibly Blake Message-ID: <20000612211139.57645.qmail@hotmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed After Susie wrote: I'd love to see more figures available, even to have everyone available eventually.> 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).

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. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 09:16:55 EST From: "J MacQueen" To: blakes7@lysator.liu.se Subject: Re: [B7L] You Know Who!
