CRIME SCENE'S E-POSTBAG!

(Or Russel's occasionally sarcastic and sometimes insightful responses to the choiced picks of reader mail!)

July/August 2005

 

Russel

Much as I love the zine, you really didn't have to give Angel any kind of warning. Everything about the zine makes it clear this is a place for adults. It seemed a bit wussy warning us about the dark themes of Angel, especially when you keep publishing that Morrow bastard (who is absolutely fuckin' ace).

You know how many people wrote similar freakin' letters? Okay, okay, we get it, we got a bit parental over the whole thing... But rather that than have some bastard complaining we didn't warm em about extreme content...

Boys

At last, articles with a degree of coherency - Ed Lynskey's article on Massur was briliantly written and a nice change from your usual lineup. I hope you'll be doing more like this in the future.

Long as you guys send us em we'll print em (if they pass mustard). Our editorial policy is a lot tighter than it used to be, but then the writers are getting better, too. Check out our article on Marlowe and Thelma Todd this month by James Clar.

Dear Sir

As Mr Chiklis (aka Potatohead)'s officially unnoficial representative I am pleased to note the lack of potato jokes in recent issues. Mr Chiklis is no longer going to get into character for the next series of The Shield by coming round and kicking your ass as Vic Mackey.

Yrs sincerely

Ima Bastard, attorney at law.

Well, Mr Bastard, we're rather upset at this news. I trust he's still going to come over in character as Chris Woods from Daddio so we can kick his ass? Well, I suppose he's too busy with his new Hollywood career playing a big lump of rock...

Do you ever wonder if some people on the net might not be who they claim to be?

Anyway, boys and girls keep those comments coming. And if Mr Chiklis' real represenatives are listening, we mean no harm. In fact all power to the Chiklis because despite everything we say a lot of people love his performance in The Shield and, hey, his bank balance is far larger than ours so he must be doing something right.

Till next time.
