Oh, I'm more or less in agreement. There's three reasons Xander/Buffy will never get together:
1. Lack of interest on the writer's part - the writer more or less told us how he saw the two characters. And considers himself Xander, so getting Buffy would be too incestuous for him. 2. Breaks the rule - you never ever put your sidekick and hero/heroine together without major league consequences. Cordy/Angel? Knew she was dead the moment it happened. It freezes up your options storywise. And limits the number of new players you can put into the mix. 3. What I said above, which is basically the writer providing us with insight into the characters.
Agree on the art - the first issue had better art overall. But I liked the story and dialogue better in this one.
