I'm still so upset that Buffy and Connor never met in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 8-12 comics/the Angel & Faith comics.

Especially since we know that Buffy knew about Connor in them. What is this madness?

I feel like part of this is because of Buffy and Angel stupidly having to be kept apart again for most of their stories. Because we haven't already told that story before. But more than that, because Connor weirdly wasn't in the story that much? Even though you really think he would have been?

But if nothing else, they could have had Buffy and Connor at this party together at the very end of the entire series, where everyone else was (Gunn, too).

Or they could have had some throwaway line somewhere, that mentioned that Buffy and Connor had already met some point offscreen.

Just give us something, man, if these comics are going to have Buffy know about Connor (which she so totally should, I mean). You know they'd get along famously.

I guess this is what fanfic is for, of course. But I feel like we were so close, yet so far away to getting them to interact with the comics, maybe. JUST WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE GIVEN US A BUFFY AND CONNOR INTERACTION THERE?

Maybe they would have if we'd had a longer season twelve, or gone on longer than twelve seasons... probably.

#buffy the vampire slayer #angel the series #buffy summers #connor #buffy and connor #buffy comics #angel & faith comics #silly decisions #or they just forgot. which makes me sad. but connor is mentioned in s12 so you'd think if they're mentioning connor in s12 and of course #writing buffy in s12 the thought would have popped into someone's head of 'hey! we still haven't had connor and buffy meet yet! maybe we #should do that!'#but if it had s12 was a rushed four comics so they probably didn't have time for it #even though i stand by my idea that buffy and connor both could have been at this barbecue at the end. and i would have been more than fine #with us just getting that #also sorry that the barbecue pic i used has spike cut off (and even the top of the banner cut off) for some reason the site i used to use #to get s12 scans doesn't have s12 anymore #and other sites i've tried to use makes my laptop freak out and act like i'm going to get viruses from there. so i really don't want to use #them. i got the pic from a video the buffyngton post on youtube did on s12 and that's how he had it in the video #i think because he was starting to use effects with it (like to zoom in and stuff) -shrugs-#also... i know it shouldn't at all... but in some ways this picture makes me sad. like the scoobies ARE angel's friends of course #and faith most certainly is #but angel just lost fred/illyria so of course she isn't in the picture with them (she/they were the only casualty the group had)#and once again angel has lost one of his friends. this man just always loses his friends #and none of his new friends from london are pictured here: nadira lavinia sophronia or even koh (or connor or gunn)#(or lorne. but i guess there's an explanation as to why he's not in the buffy and angel comics for a reason i don't know because i haven't #read the lorne comic yet?)#and. i mean. granted i feel like angel wasn't THAT close to them #but it just maybe shows that sometimes i really feel like the buffy writers didn't care about angel or the angel storyline as much #and all of those storylines definitely didn't get wrapped up here #i know they really probably couldn't have because it's a miracle we got these plotlines wrapped up in four issues when dark horse found out
