It's t'riffic, isn't it? Sadly, it'll undoubtedly be way better than the 'real' thing.

The Spike one-shot is supposed to come out in August. The artwork looks very good and Peter David is a well known comic book writer. It's just that, rightly or wrongly, I don't trust men to write Spike in a way I like him (which is silly, seeing as most of the series writers were men - but then I often thought that most of them never really 'got' him).

I remember Peter David as a competent "Star Trek" novel writer, but when it comes to Spike, I expect a whole lot more than mere "competence" from the writer. And, yeah, I'm afraid I agree with you about the male writers on the series not "getting" Spike as well as we'd have liked -- or as well as so many fanfic writers seem to "get" him.

Oh, well -- as the Mel Brooks song from the movie "The Twelve Chairs" goes, "Hope for the best! Expect the worst! The world's a stage. We're unrehearsed . . . "

Good advice. Maybe I can just look at the pictures and ignore the story?
