I'd been thinking about the writing process for Buffy and Angel and I started wondering about Brian Lynch and how he connects with the characters. Anyways, I know Brian stops by here so I thought I'd just create a questions topic for him. Maybe he'll even answer some of them. No pressure, Mr. Lynch Question: When did you become of fan of Angel? How did your interest begin?

I got one. Is there going to be an Angel season 7? If not, do you think there is any chance of cross overs or is it legally impossible? I'm not asking for spoilers, I just wanna know if the option is even there.

It's allowed legally. Joss said he can do whatever he wants. Neither IDW or Dark Horse own the characters, Fox does. The comics just own the right to publish comics under that title. That's why it's cool for Dark Horse to have dream sequences with Angel and Spike. If Joss wanted to work out a cross-over, he very much could.

That's kinda a confusing way to put it. What it really is in film terms is either a long movie or a trilogy of movies (according to Brian). The only reason it's not called a season is because the format is different. It's not different arcs tied together by a similar storyline. The entire series is just one arc, like a movie. There are elements from what would have happened in Season Six, but that's really it. However, it's precisely what does happen after Season Five with a lot of elements from what WOULD have happened in Season Six.

Alright, then allow me to rephrase the question for the 3rd time...
Brian, are there any plans to make more Angel comics after ATF?

Brian's word on that, last time I remember, is "Not yet" and that they're concentrating on "After the Fall" for now in a 100% kinda way.

So it's an extended season 5? I think it was described as an "Angel movie trilogy" that we will never get. Yeah, I'm viewing it as the equivalent of a 3-hour (or so) TV miniseries, compared to "Buffy" S8, which is--obviously--the equivalent of an actual season (maybe not 22 whole episodes, but at least 12-16). So when the question keeps coming up of which is better, AtF or S8, I find it almost impossible to answer, because they're so different in format. It's like trying to compare "Firefly" (TV series) to "Serenity" (major motion-picture)--both great, but in completely different ways...

That's a great question Emmie.
I hope Brian will answer this completely superficial question, I've been watching season five of Angel recently, and Nina's hair is very blonde, almost platinum. Now in comparison with After The Fall, Nina's hair is almost brown. Is that for a reason? Or just artistic license? Or is it just hard to find a good hair salon in Hell? Also anyone who complained about Nina's appearence in the first few issues and her enhanced chest, go watch "Smile Time" then I'm sure you'll rethink your complaints.
Weighing in on the topic of "Is After The Fall season six of the television series?". It's been confirmed that it is not. Joss and Brian created it with aspects and story from what had been considered and discussed for the television series if it had a sixth season. But we can assume that Joss never would have entertained the idea of having Angel flying around Hell on a dragon. It's not feasible on a television series budget. That's what this medium allows Joss and co. to do, they are not restrained by a budget or limited in that way. So they can create a story that best suits the medium.

Eh I doubt Brian will answer any of these questions. I mean it's brilliant if he does it's just he alread has a Question and answer blog that he does every now and again he then adds it to a podcast and posts it on his blog. I can't remember the exact link to it but Im pretty sur it's already been posted somewhere else on here.

I started this thread then hours later found that he'd been receiving questions to be answered through his podcasts. We can still post questions though and maybe someday in a future not far away he'll answer.

I know Brian doesn't aswer here, but I've got a couple of questions I've wanted to ask someone, somewhere for a lil while...
1.) How many issues will Angel ATF run for?
2.) Will the second TPB comprise only the 3 First night issues? Or 5 including the 3 first night issues?
