I'm whatting over your post alone. I'm way behind on the comics, thinking that might just be as well.

The outrage is so funny on so many different levels.

1. People expecting reasoned story telling from the person that gave us S4, S6, and S7.

2. Spuffies who somehow feel Bangels are winning (how is this any prize).

3. People just not stopping reading the comics.

4. From all the reviews, it's just too funny.

What's not funny is Whedon possibly butchering Captain America & Avengers on screen. I like my Marvel films.

I just wish someone from Marvel would read this damn shit and realise Whedon's a busted flush. It's not as if the Avengers doesn't have enough problems with Chris Evans as Cap without Whedon inserting his talentless cronies.

Ah, well. I've still got Iron Man 2 & Thor. Why couldn't he have gone DC? I don't care about DC!

LMAO!! thanks for posting this, I really needed the laugh!

I haven't read the comics..I prefer my whedonverse shows with real(fictional) characters and not cartoons.

At least now I see what had some of my flisters up in arms. But I still don't get what all the hubbub is about. Sex shmex..who really cares who's doing who? It's a cartoon for goodness sakes. If it had happened on the show...

I saw that last week. Very funny. I'm glad I'm just reading the comics so I can keep up with the madness. I'm so past caring what Joss does in them it's not even funny.

I'm not sure fun is the word I would use. ;-)

But I'm really not minding them as much as a lot of people seem to be. I think part of that is because I'm not as into the Buffy fandom as I once was although I still really enjoy engaging in a bit of meta discussion now and then. And, yeah, these comics are so OTT that it's hard to think of them as anything but elaborate Mary Sueish fanfic.

Yep. Spock knows I've had my own share of getting-into-a-tizzy-ness over the show, and I stopped throwing my money at Joss and the comics after the Satsu incident. But I've gotten to the point now where I'm rubber-necking the gigantic wreck the comics have turned into (IMHO).

My first thought is 'You mean that big horse-faced woman used to be tiny, pretty Buffy?'

But other wise she looks to me more as if she's yawning - sort of 'Bored now. Can you just get on with it?'

"For me one of the big failings of the comic is that the artwork just doesn't stand up -- which is especially obvious when compared to the often stunning cover art."

Sometimes you just can't make lemonade from lemons.

LOL!
