For Babylon 5 fans

I just saw this on an SF mailing list: JMS is going to release all the B5 scripts in trade paperbacks with 7 scripts per book. They will have rare B&W photos he took on set, and the first book will have the original of 'The Gathering' -- cut scenes, Londo as a part-time pickpocket (um, does he keep his hands in plain sight, nudge nudge wink wink?), and Kosh with a lifemate called Velena who plays an important role. Go and read and find out what will be in the final bonus volume, because there's a lot more.

JMS's announcement

Eee! I can afford $29 US every two weeks. Sure I can.

*budgets less for food*

[grin] The last book sounds fascinating too.

I mean, there's always the fear that new JMS commentary will joss all of my interpretations/speculations, but getting my hands on the writers bible?

Yeah, that has to be full of background details never used.

Well, I know I wouldn't mind getting my hands on them (rubs hands in anticipation).

I don't think I can afford them, but the first and last seriously tempt me.

Wow! Definitely a must.

Wow. I ... want, and yet cannot afford.

Perhaps I will write supplicant letters to the public library.

Yeah, I might go for the first and last books only. Postage to here costs as much as the books. :-(

Wriiiters Biiible... *drools*

Really want these. Pity about the cost. Still they might come up second hand someday.

And the man clearly knows how the pitch his product. He sounds a bit like an infomercial. "Not only, but also!"

Maybe he'll offer steak knives with them. Or a triple-edged sword. ;-)
