Angel Comics...

I don't know why I thought that the Angel comic continuation, After the Fall, was still awaiting release. Apparently, I'm a moron, and they're already three episodes in. Go figure.
Starting off...
GUNN!!! Noooooooes! He's been turned into a vampire??? My darling Gunn? Joss, I DO NOT WANT!
And Wesley is still contracted to W&H in Hell a la Lilah? I really don't like the implications of that for Fred as well. Mainly, I think that poor Wesley has freaking suffered enough. He was the emotional (and frequently physical) punching bag for the writers throughout the entire series. This takes away from his gorgeous death scene, which he was totally fine with because it meant he could be with Fred again.
Well, I guess Connor's stint in the Land of Normal is officially over. That was inevitable, but still too bad.
Oh, and Angel's riding around L.A. on a freaking dragon. That's right, he "tamed" the dragon he was so excited about in the series finale. *FacePalm* That's just... silly. Though, Wikipedia tells me that he's finally regained his mortality. No more fangs for him. How that's gonna work out, I have no idea.
Lastly, Spike is now the demon Hugh Hefner of L.A. Yup.
So, my consensus is that this project just should not be. The last episode of Season 5 should be the last stop. No more. It took me years to be okay with that ambiguous ending, so I'm gonna stick with that as far as my "canon" goes.
