Not sure if he still says so, but Brian Lynch said that only After the Fall #1-17 are canon. Joss actually 'worked' on those. This means that even Juliet Landau's comics and the comics Brian wrote after #17 and the new Spike thing -- unless Joss okays its canon-ness -- will not be canon.
Given After the Fall , it kinda is assumed that Spike: Asylum is canon. But so far Spike: Shadow Puppets doesn't need to be.
As for the Angel is Twilight stuff. For me, it simply makes more sense that Spike is Twilight. And this includes Twilight's height and build. Angel is simply taller and more broad than Twilight has been depicted.
But what REALLY "got to me" was them doing covers of BUFFY KISSING ANGEL. I mean, WTF!!! That made no sense even given her current desperation to be with a man. Besides the fact that she didn't even kiss Angel in her 'flashback happy dream' and not even want to be around him or him around her, Buffy had never in the past let Angel get away with anything. The only thing close is not killing Angelus sooner. But Angelus only killed a few people and killed Jenny. In Angel season 5, we're led to believe that Buffy had her entire organization against Angel and Co. simply because Angel was running the LA branch of Wolfram and Hart.
Buffy actually did let Spike get away with a lot. Including murder. I mean she got with him even after he for years had tried to kill her and would have killed Xander and Willow and he betrayed her more than once. Then even when with her, she brushes off that whole demon egg thing that Riley made seem like an apocalyptic thing: humans versus the demon things. Then you have the Season 7 stuff.
But Angel: She'd kiss him after everything he's done. Now, of course, we don't know yet what's in the upcoming Issues. Angel could be being controlled. It could be some evil Angel. Good Angel could come back and Buffy if of course possible would kiss good Angel. Hell, she's thinking about wanting to be back with Riley or even getting with one-eyed Xander. She tells Xander she's desperate enough. So, why not Angel? But we don't know what's up with Angel and therefore it's horrendous and icky that they'd have covers of them kissing.
Other than that, if it's true that Scott Allie has influenced Spike not being in Season 8, has influenced Buffy ending up with Angel instead of Spike, and has influenced Buffy having feelings for Xander...
THOSE ARE HUGE THINGS. Fox didn't influence who Buffy was with. Joss being influenced by Scott is not a small thing as it affects canon.

Where on earth did you get the impression that Scott Allie has any sway on who Buffy ends up with? Quote would be appreciated to back that up.
