I think it was a badly phrased way of saying "there are two ways this can go."

Just jumping to my friend's defense. If it hadn't started out with "*sigh*" I might have been a bit less quick to said defense. No harm no foul.
But colored version aside, the B&W version really looks like an inked sketch to you? I know our taste in art differs tremendously (you're a huge Jeanty fan, while I think he went from great to good to awful to okay to decent), but I thought Elena's art here was excellent. Cover-worthy.

*sigh* IMO, this is a piece that's better left uncolored. Reasons: 1. The inks are incomplete. Looking at the hi-res image, there are tons of "white gaps" left where it should be completely black. Casagrande's art also suffers from the same problem in the comics. It just looks unfinished that way. 2. The lines on Faith's face don't look good when you color the image. They are, IMO, unnecessary in the first place, but when you add color over an attempt at creating a three-dimensional space, you end up making Faith look like she has ill-placed and ill-groomed whiskers. 3. The muted color palette washes out EVERYTHING. And the multiple highlight points in Willow's hair is kinda bizarre. I like to point out that I actually kinda liked the original piece, for what it was. An inked sketch. This, not so much. My fan (and somewhat amateur art appreciator) opinion. As far as the actual image, it wasn't an inked sketch. Also, I like Ryan's coloring quite a bit. I think a list of reasons why he shouldn't have done it is a bit inappropriate for something that a fan did for fun.

Really, really good list. I'm sort of confused about the Buffy/Angel having separate colors thing, though, because confirmed canon in "Buffy" is confirmed canon in "Angel."
Also, "Riley" has to happen after #11. There are references to Buffy knowing about Twilight in the ish.

"Hallow Thorn dislikes this."
Why?

I'm good with losing Jeanty. He did a decent job in most of the issues, but I think it's time for someone new.

What I Want: I want "Angel" to not be under the Season Nine banner. It's incredibly stupid and indicative of how Dark Horse sees the character (just a cog in the BUFFY machine).

Woah, that is a mean wish :/
If Joss's "The Avengers" is successful, he'll be able to do whatever he wants with the rest of his career. That is big.
But I still don't understand how Season Nine is going to work. Nor do I understand how they thought adding all the Angel characters to their roster at this time was a good decision.

Spike *has* been mentioned in relation to Season Nine, in that he's gonna be around a lot more.
Also, the quote that struck me: "Why would you ask that question!?!"
Oh, Scott Allie. -_-

Love love love Frison.
The series is called "Haunted," though, not "Hunted." In that Fred is haunting her from the inside.

The colorist of my webcomic "ANGEL: LAST NIGHT" (Ryan Marshall) is coloring it right now.
Also, "Hole in the World" was for sure the last adaptation we'll see from IDW.

Please don't engage each other in hostile conversation. A discussion of why you're pro/con #36 would be fine, but otherwise, just walk away. Nuts to you. I've found a pro-Bangel board, so I'm leaving SlayAlive. Thanks for making my stay so hospitable. Gotta say, I really dig this post. Riker just goes on and on on Whedonesque, and I wished he would leave. Now he came here, and I wished he would leave. Guess wishes just happen to be horses.

Read the interview It's Elena Casagrande. It's just her and Scott's vision of the comic, not an upcoming series or a pitch or anything. Also, just a note: The interview also covers ILLYRIA: HAUNTED and a lot of general stuff.
