Has there been any word yet on when, or if, Joyce and/or Dawn show up?
I'm also curious about other characters from the TV show making appearances, like Principal Snyder or Mayor Wilkins.
Joyce has already appeared, she has a live-in boyfriend who's trying to get along with Buffy without much success. Seems like no Dawn in this reboot, at least not yet.
If Xander is killed/turned by Angel as theorized, I wonder if we're in for a scenario where there's a recurring dynamic within that particular bloodline between Dru and her "pet" Spike, and Angelus and his own "servant" Xander.
Also, potential plot-twist: all the remnants of the Master's bloodline have souls. Maybe this time around the entire Order of Aurelius was cursed, not just Angel. So Dru and Spike as we see them now have souls. That's why Spike doesn't seem that bad. Dru on the other hand is just evil by nature. Angel meanwhile has lost his soul at some point.
Oversaturation of the soul angle? Perhaps. But just a thought.

I'm very intrigued to see where they take the Angel title! I'd love to see them introduce Fred, Gunn, and Lorne in new roles. Oh, and Wesley! So many possibilities.

"Disappointed, Ms. Frost?" "Astonished, Ms. Pryde."

They were all great characters and I hope to see them in the new series. spoilers:end of spoilers
Fred's destruction on the show was absolutely heartbreaking and I had a hard time with Angel and Co. accepting Illyria into their team. If Fred comes to the comics I hope she gets to stay a while without being Illyria.
I was always more of Angel fan so im glad he got rebooted with his own comic to boot.
Not bad for Captain Forehead.
Im curious about how he's gonna make his debut and what his solo comic would be like.
