Is anyone still reading the Buffy and Angel comics out there? Because I followed an odd link - that contained an interview with Nicholas Brendan (played Xander in the series), stating how he will be writing and show-running Season 10?? Also, that Giles has been brought back to life as a...kid???

Will state I was intrigued that he pitched a Spike & Xander pairing or team up. (Keep in mind Brendan was friends with Marsters.)

Yep, I've been reading them all along. The Angel & Faith title turned out to have a far happier fan base than the Buffy title, which is probably because A&F was really well drawn and had respectable writing work. Buffy? Meh, not bad, not great, had its moments.

The Giles resurrection twist was risky from a writing standpoint, but personally I think they pulled it off fairly cleverly. Giles is physically 12 again, but he has the mind of the old Giles, in terms of both memory and functionality.

I'm not 100% certain of this, but if I understand correctly, the A&F team has now been promoted to helming Buffy Season 10. Season 10 starts in just a few weeks. Not sure who will be doing A&F.

Brendan is not a Season 10 showrunner, he'll be co-writing a few issues, I believe, that's all.

So the interview isn't quite that accurate?

Does make sense that Gage has been promoted to Buffy S10 along with the artist - since the fan base was happier with it.

Haven't read either. Not my cup of tea, so to speak.
