if you go back to the Whedonesque thread now you'll find that a lot more people have read your review and posted favorable comments about it... it really was a wonderful post (so I don't think it was a complete waste of your time even w/the editing et al).
Re: people not reading Lynch... I still blame IDW for driving people away. They did one long series which purported to be about Angel, but he was only in it peripherally, they were really promoting an entirely unrelated character (Fallen Angel, an actual angel with wings... and a really lame story line). When I tried to cancel subscriptions w/IDW for these various Angel titles I found that they kept sending them to my comic book dealer (sticking him with a situation of having to go to the trouble & expense of returning unwanted/unordered comics or guilting me into paying for things I didn't want to read). I ended up really disgusted with IDW.
But having said that, I do like IDW's comics about Doctor Who #11 (LOL).
I just wish that Brian Lynch would end up writing Spike for Dark Horse, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards. :(
