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.)

NB isn't show running S10. He's co-writing 3 issues with Christos Gage and hopes to stick around to contribute more. He'll be writing an arc about Xander and Spike sharing a house together after the developments of last season. From what I've gathered, they plan to have Xander and Spike develop some form of friendship after Spike stuck by Dawn's side during her illness in S9.

And yep Giles is a kid. Angel and Faith tried to resurrect Giles, it went badly, and Giles was brought back as a child instead. I wish he had stayed dead (nothing personal against Giles I just prefer it when some major deaths stick)but admittedly it does have potential. Depends on how they handle it going forward but I am looking forward to seeing Buffy's reaction to him.

Those are actually interesting developments. Have to admit I'm intrigued by NB writing the Xander and Spike arc. That's an interesting pairing. Also Spike sticking by Dawn's side during her illness sounds interesting.

Giles as a kid - with Buffy and Xander and Willow struggling to deal with does have some potential.

Agreed on the death bit. If you don't make major deaths stick...the reader stops worrying about characters dying.
