This is issue 40:

The inside cover reads, "jk jk, all this was a joke, Chosen was the end." And there is a picture of Joss with a big "gotcha!" smile and a wink?

I'm being sarcastic, I'm just so...full of apathy towards season 8 at this point.

that would royally piss me off lol. I spent all this time and money on a comic that was supposed to be canon, only to find out that it isn't? bull effing crap! Even though there is a lot about s8 I don't like. But it does have a lot that they can improve, which is why i'm looking forwards to s9
 
I like season 8. I like season 8 a lot. I know a lot of people hate it but I actually like season 8. It's interesting. If that were to happen I'd be PISSED!

finally something I can wholeheartedly DISagree with you about. our parallel minds started to get scary. :p
I think Season Eight might have gotten rave reviews had it been a half-season miniseries on TV.

Given the new medium, I think Angel & Buffy suffered the most. Characters like Xander, Spike, or even Faith verbalize their feelings, but Angel and Buffy (as of late) are so stoic, it makes their radical choices seem out of left field. If we saw body language, facial expressions, or changes in tone from SMG or Boreanaz, it would've added a lot!

That's a really good point. I never thought of it that way.
That's true. I'd be pissed even if it were only because of the money I've spent.

I'm still raw after Giles being killed. Let's see how they're gonna end it.

hahaha yes it was. Now we know you and I are indeed two separate people. hahaha 🙂

Big fat no! I've invested so much for this season, my money, my thoughts, even wrote my first Spuffy fic set in S8. The four-years thing does drag, but S8 has a lot of great character moments and storylines. I'm grateful we have it. It kept fandom alive. I don't think I'd be here if it weren't for S8 keeping me still interested in fandom.

I love your love for s8. Because I feel the same way about a lot of the season, but not a lot of people are saying it.
Doesn't matter to me either way, i'm not reading them, just using them for the amazing art!! LOL

So typically classic Joss.
I'd like that, only if he'd retcon Kennedy away, and retcon Tara's death. As well.
 
I normally hate it when things are retconned in comics.....though I could probably live with season 8 having never happened. I hope Scott Allie realises the level of hate he has generated by not even bothering to watch Angel before attempting to write the character. Argh

Or even half as long.. there was alot of fluff and filler.. it could have logically been 10 issues (in my opinion)- clear and concise, add another 10 for miscellany and everything could have been wrapped up in half the time. I think it would have flowed better and provided a better presentation.

I completely agree. 90% of the "Predators & Prey" arc didn't belong in the main title, though I'd say Faith & Giles have enough cred to warrant their own "episode"

I hope that too. But he can't repair the damage he has done: mad:
 
I unhappy as I was about Giles being killed, I think I'd be pissed if it were all a joke. I already spent over a month mourning the guy. I would hate to have my chain yanked like that.
