Lynch, with Joss' blessing, successfully turned inside out Angel's arc in season 4 when Angel's journey became an antithesis to the idea of God.
Well put. I found the whole arc really satisfying, on both an emotional and philosophical level.
Gunn got the most interesting arc on AtF and his current situation is a perfect set-up for the next step in his journey.
Agreed, no question. I haven't been reading the Buffyverse comics (although I have been following the reviews), but of all the characters in AtF, I think Gunn would be the most interesting to bring over into that verse. There's so much left to do with him, and Joss would finally get to explore Gunn's character in a way that he never did on the shows.
It would also be neat to have him stay with Angel and watch them try to repair that relationship, but I don't trust Armstrong to handle it properly. I won't be reading Aftermath.
