And now I'm curious about what you might have said that isn't nice. LOL
There's been a discussion going on at the Bloodshedverse Forum about whether or not the comics (and the generally negative reactions to them) has been having an effect on writers (specifically Spuffy writers). Some feel very strongly that general disgust with the comics has smooshed the love for anything Buffy-based for many writers. My thinking is, just as the less happy-making episodes of the show sparked a lot of "let me fix this" fic, the comics should be sparking lots of AU futures where they don't exist, or where they're done better. Do you think you're having comics fallout? Are you reading? or just following discussions? Are they making you love the characters less?
