Hey again! Over the course of Issue 10 & 11 I grew to like Nina a lot more then Gwen. Which is weird, because I never liked her character at all. Do you have any plans for her? Or anything important that's going to happen with her? I notice that you are doing stuff with Gwen, and stuff and I"m hoping you have something planned for Nina. Nina has what I think is a wonderful scene in issue (I think...?) 12. It's not a long one, but with Nina I've learned that she's great at stealing little moments in the book. She's got a lot going on in her head, and it's been fun to hint at it. I don't think Nina is going to rise up and save the day at the end of ATF, but I do think if you like her, and you like what she's had to say thus far, you'll dig the other stuff with her, coming up.

Good answer, Brian. I am really pretty thrown by that Gwen answer then... seems, then, that either she never had any genuine feeling or loyalty to Connor to betray, or that she is convinced that she's helping him by helping Gunn. Not a question, just thinkin' Here's another "fresh from the message board trenches" kind of question, Brian -- without getting into what will happen, since we know you can't tell us... do you think Angel is and would be just as compelling a hero if he stayed human than if he turned back into a vampire? How does it strike you the idea that people think he *has* to be supernatural to still command the same audience interest long term?

Has it dawned on you yet that you're playing a very big role in the history of the Buffyverse?

*looks up at thread title, looks down at own banner, laughs* Any updates you can share with us on the future projects for the Angelverse at IDW? The characters that live on after AFTER THE FALL will continue in AFTERMATH! I think it's retaining the old numbering. Kelley Armstrong is writing.

What character has been the biggest challenge, writing wise, for you and why?

How does it strike you the idea that people think he *has* to be supernatural to still command the same audience interest long term? Gwen: you're kinda there, kinda sorta! One of those theories is warm. Angel being a vampire: I think Angel is such a strong character that he can be a vampire or a human or a sleestak or whatever and he'd still work. That said, eventually, someday, you kinda want to see him be a vampire again, right? I mean, fish has gotta swim. Except telepathic fish. They kinda float.

Brian, when I found out you wrote a Spider-Man story in Spider-Man Unlimited #1, I tore through my back issue box to find it, and I remembered thinking how hilarious it was at the time. I'd love to see what you would do with the Brand New Day Spidey.
My question: Will Party Truck USA ever return?

Anyone who doesn't know what we're talking about, go type PARTY TRUCK USA into itunes. ENJOY!

What is a dream Buffyverse project you have in your head? Some fantastic notion that didn't fit in the ATF landscape, but you have imagined happening.

Have you had any trouble figuring out how to balance Fred and Illyria, since they are essentially a two-for-one type of character (two characters in one body)? This goes for both Angel: After the Fall and Spike: After the Fall. Any scenes where you wanted Illyria there, but absolutely had to have Fred (the scene in issue #11 where Fred sees Gunn comes to mind)? And vice-versa. I guess this question also applies to Wesley as well, since he has a strong relationship with both characters.
Hope this makes sense, I just spent 3 hours in class and my brain is all conjunctified (did I make up a word there?).

Gwen: you're kinda there, kinda sorta! One of those theories is warm. I am are smart, I when to kollej. Not... especially, no. Hey, you asked I'll endure as long as it doesn't suck, though, and you're pretty good at the not sucking Round 3 for me! What do you think is the biggest creative advantage to writing an "Angel" comic in the context of Hell-A over if you were telling a story in the "normal" LA?
