I agree that as far as 'ships go, Bander's more likely than anything. However, I'm not expecting it in a hurry - maybe not till season 8 ends in two years' time, and maybe not even then if there's to be a season 9, because it's a fundamental rule in comics (as in TV drama) that if couples get together awful things have to happen to them to keep them interesting ( ... )

It's a Jossian rule as well so it's doubly certain.

Given that a simple kiss turned out to be a death sentence for poor Renee...

I also think that if Joss decides to reunite Buffy and Xander romantically, it will happen in the last issue. Joss tortured Spuffy shippers for two and a half seasons and Bander shippers will most likely get the same treatment.

As I was reading about Scott Summers and Jean Grey I couldn't help but wonder if there are shipper wars in X-Men universe... :)

I liked AtF 8 but I agree the stories were very brief. Also, I think it's high time to get back to the main event.

I salivated when I saw thar there already were first comments on issue 10 on IDW forum. :)

I enjoyed your reviews very much.

*blushes* Thanks!

Oh undoubtedly.

As for 'shipper wars in the X-Menverse - I expect there are, especially now because of the movies, but I don't follow the books any more, so I have no idea.

Should imagine there are diehard Scott/Jean 'shippers who loathe Scott's current love and Jean's flirtation with Wolverine the way B/A 'shippers hate Spike and Cordy, though.
