"during a recent Q&As with Lynch I asked him if he met actors who played the characters from the comics and if he tried to incorporate their personal traits into the characters. He didn't reply."

Oh there's a surprise. *g*

Don't get me wrong I'm relieved that Brian is going to be writing more Spike as he seems to genuinely love the character, and I trust him more then anyone else out there at the moment, but I'm afraid these comics and (like all mainstream comics) written by and for men, not women, and so other sides of Spikes character I think will probably be either played down, or vanish altogether.
