I've heard some stuff about the comics from my flist, but yeah I've never read them either. I do think it's unfortunate that so much importance is placed on them being canon when the stuff happening in them doesn't fit with the tv series at all half the time (ie Buffy flying)

And Giant!Dawn. Once a friend told me about that, I pretty much made my mind right up never to read them.

I'm not a fan of the idea of them doing a bunch of things that wouldn't/couldn't have happened on the show - the comic is based on the show - it should respect the show's universe.

Yeah IA, if it's a continuation of the show than it should be based on how a real season 8 would have gone, not weird wish fulfillment

Joss always said that working with a budget actually helped make the show better as he was forced to think up more creative storylines than just throwing a lot of flashy stunts at it
