I think he's joking. It's hard to tell with Lynch, though.

I do too - not because I haven't enjoyed some of his Spike stuff, but as flake_sake says, it gets repetitive and I don't really want him cast in the 'Spike expert' role.

I still think it might be a joke. I never thought he would take a job with Dark Horse. Chris Ryall of IDW is a great friend of his.

Joke, maybe? I thought he didn't want to work for DH?

Oh, comics, schmomics...

If it is true, though - seems i'm coming over to Your side of the fence. ;-)

:) As I said to Maggie: Welcome, we've got grapes. :)

I'm pretty much ambivalent towards BL. I think his stuff is getting a little repetitive and it's not very ambitious (though it pretty much can't be under the current conditions) but decently entertaining if nothing better is around.

That's a lot better than S8 is doing in my eyes, but still far far away from a comic that really revives the spirit of the shows.

I'll certainly not return to S9 for BL.

Thanks for the welcome. :)

And yes, i'll definetly not read season 9 for BL. I had this slight hope (like crushed ice, now ;-)) that maybe season 8 meant anything at all and was just executed badly - season 9 could revive the spirit of the TV show again.

Truth be told, i have no interest in "Solo-Spike" at all. I think the character is much, much better served when rubbing off of other characters.

I guess for me personally I hope he's joking, but then I guess this would make a lot of people happy, so I guess I won't wish it TOO hard for their sake. (Not that my wishing things makes it true. I don't have a vengeance, er, justice demon friend or anything.)
