Angel wings look like shit on nearly everyone. They’re too cutsie on children and everyone else either looks like they should be in a choir or are trying too hard to get laid. I also secretly think that Michael Alig killed that guy (whose name was Angel) because he always wore angel wings and not because of drugs. The Party Monster killer proved that angels go down pretty easily with a blow to the head from a hammer.

But today I am saddened because the only angel that mattered to me is dead. On Tuesday, John Phillip Law, who starred as Pygar in Barbarella died. He was also the super sexy, incredibly fashionable criminal mind Diabolik, of Mario Bava’s fantastic Danger: Diablik. R.I.P. JPL.
