Buffy Comic Poll - Have you now or have you ever tried the Buffy comics?
This poll is at the request of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shapinglight and in direct response to a discussion shapinglight, beergoodfoamy and I were having regarding comic readership. We were wondering how many of the television fans actually read or were reading the comics, how many were continuing to read them or had given up, why they'd given up, why they were still reading, and how many were fans of the comics but not of the tv series. Not sure this poll will answer any of those questions. But hey, it's worth a shot.
So please pass the link along...the more responses the better. Especially if you are fan and have never read the comics, or are a fan and started to read them and gave up? Please respond to the poll - you only have to respond to a couple of questions...since the latter ones don't apply to non-readers of the comics.
Polls are tough to create - because you can't edit the things. You always forget something. So if I did, just explain your take in the comments, keeping in mind that I can't edit the poll! And you are dependent on people responding to them. But they are also a lot more fun and more informative than memes...in my opinon. Anyhow...thanks.

no subject
I am actually open to the Xander/Dawn pairing but I couldn't say 'I loved it' so I went ahead and said ambivalent... I'm really open to anything Joss wants to do (I weird like that), but I do wish he had let Renee live a little longer... I really liked her character and I'd have liked to get to know her better....
I wish Joss hadn't brought in Ethan Rayne just to kill him off so quickly, that seemed like a wasted opportunity to me.... And I hope that Twilight is someone we haven't thought of (how about Riley's wife? THAT would be hilarious!).
And actually I'm not sure I would really say I love Brian Lynch's Spike MORE than Joss' BtVS S8, I just like them differently.... I do think that Brian is a very good comic book story teller, his work is tight, funny and right on the nose. Joss' comic writing has a tendency to wander around and it all starts to feel kind of sloppy (and his TV productions never feel sloppy to me). But I'm still willing to follow Joss in his wanderings; I thought he paid it all (or at least almost all) off w/his Astonishing X-men, and I trust him to bring BtVS S8 home too (we shall see).
And I do subscribe to the position that if Joss says it is canon then it is. I'm not going to bother arguing the point with anyone anywhere ever, but it is how I feel.
