I really hoped I could enjoy the Buffy comics, but so far they've left me flat, even the Season 8 stuff. The thing that made Buffy so good was that it was a comic book on television, done well. A comic book about a television show that was basically a braindump of Whedon's comics geek brain doesn't have the same novelty. It feels like it's all been done before and better.
I've had mixed feelings about his X-men stuff as well, but I've enjoyed reading it more than any of his other comics.
