Oh I loved your analysis, your really went into the heart of the first comic. *blushes* Thanks!
With Brian I do think Joss can go to new levels of depth. They can both be deep and dark. Which is why I think Joss choose Brian.
Yes - "Spike: Asylum" was disturbing and dark. And funny. I think it's a very Jossian trait - to combine dark with funny. I adore Joss' last contribution to AtS - A Hole in the World. The episode is incredibly dark and heartbreaking; and, at the same time, it features the funniest Spangel scene ever - "cavemen vs astronauts" argument. A scene which, in hindsight, might be a foreshadowing of season 6 themes and issues...
