@ Osterby,

 

you are mothenfuckin AWSOME Wink

 

so the "tainted Blood" in the comics might have a double meaning on the show? 

 

F.Y.I. my hubby is a comic reader, & he totaly enjoys reading the TB comics from this site vs. reading the SVM books in my collection..

 

maybe i'm a bad influence **snort**

 

Hail Viking Cool

"Thank you", i said, my face pressed to his silent chest. "No", he said quietly. "You took me in off the road and kept me safe. You're ready to fight for me. i can tell this about you. i can't believe my luck. when this witch is defeated, i would bring you to my side. i will share everything i have with you. Every vampire who owes me fealty will honor you". (DTTW page 189;chapter 9)   " you were so sweet when you didnt know who you were". "Sweet"?  "Very, we gossiped like old buddies". "You were so scared and alone, and you liked to talk to me. it was fun having you around". "Fun", "i'm not fun now"? "No Eric, you are too busy being…… Yourself". "Head boss vampire, political animal, budding tycoon".  Eric shrugged . "Is myself so bad? many women seem to think not". "i'm sure they do". ( DAAD page 173; chapter 11)

I certainly did, and I also recognized the TB Eric that Sunny and I have discussed in the past–the one who is a sheriff, not a murderer of innocents.

After S2 I made the point that Sookie attributed Bill's sins to Eric–always following behind screaming, "Don't kill him!" Here we see it again, but the comic is clear where the show was ambiguous. Eric had no intention of killing the gards.

Yes,  I agree…totally.  Bill has always made it his mission to blame Eric for his own bad deeds towards Sookie.

I love Pam and her snarkiness in this issue too!  Wonder if her boots were Prada?…..lmao

Ya'll have me salivating to hear the details!

Jesus and I agreed to see other people, but that don't mean we don't still talk from time to time.

@Sunny,

 

Scroll up and read the post.  Pam is upset having to fight the rabid vampires in Fangtasia with Eric.  And she's pissed off that her boots will be ruined.  Very reminiscent of the "great pumps" remark Eric made after he sent Pam and Chow out into the woods looking for MaryAnn.

That is one of my favorite moments, aside from Jessica glamouring Hoyt to kill Bill.  This issue is the bestest yet!Kiss

 

Yes, Eric is depicted as his most honorable true self….

@Sunny

Heads up.

I posted the 3.04 arcana today, and I think you especially will find a couple things of interest in it. Wink

@Osterby

I adored all the Eric/Sookie interaction. MM really did that well. 

Eric's comment about not getting the threesome he had been dreaming about seems to indicate that Sookie's dream at the very beginning of TL was…wait for it….here it come…yes…a shared dream. Hahaha!

 

PS I was also thrilled to get the fabulously bloody and sexy cover of Jessica this time around. I never get the cool covers.

Renee,

I was planning to fit these comic books into the timeline…if I can.  When the first series came out, the writers said they were canon.  They told us that the first series was between season 2 and season 3, right? 

So, it this is true then TL would be between season 3 and 4…AE and Sookie would be in a past tense then, right?  Could this be why there is a stark difference in the depiction of Eric and Sookie's attitude towards Eric in TL?
