Brian Lynch wants to ask you some questions about Angel. Not familiar with the name? Well, Brian is the co-author of the upcoming Angel season 6 comic coming soon from IDW Publishing, and he wants some of your input for potential entry into the series.
Three of the questions pertain to the original five-season run of the show. For instance, Lynch would like to know what other Angelverse character you'd like to see as a puppet other than Angel himself (who became one during the last season). Brian would also like to know who your favorite baddie was from both Angel and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Finally, who do you think was the most under-appreciated character in Angel. Lynch clarifies what he wants by stating that characters such as Lorne or Wesley should not be included. He's talking about a character that has largely been ignored by fans.
You can reply to these questions at either the IDW discussion boards or at the Whedonesque website. You can also express you opinions here in this very blog.

1. SHADOW PUPPETS question. You know that Spike and Lorne get puppetized...who else in all of the ANGELverse would you like to see as a puppet? Trust me when I say your opinion WILL count on this one.
Nina, in werewolf mode. because a werewolf puppet would just be awesome.
(skipping 2 to 4)
5. Favorite big bad from ALL the BUFFY or ANGEL seasons.
Unlike Buffy, Angel did not really have season big bads, except in season 4. This is why I pick up one from Buffy, and the best big bad on buffy is Richard Wilkins (the mayor, season 3).
6. Most underappreciated character from ANGEL. I'm not talking Wesley or Lorne, I'm talking about someone largely ignored by the IDW books or the fanbase in general.
Anne. She was a Buffy character at first, but I like how she had grown up when we see her in Angel. And I loved how she kept using Buffy's second name, but no one in Angel ever knew about it.
Or maybe Dana, the psycho-slayer.

1. I'd like a Wesley puppet.
...
5. Definitely the Mayor. That guy oozed charisma.
6. Underappreciated character would be Lilah Morgan. She had some really interesting character development. I'd like to see more from her.

How about Skip, Cordelia's demon guide friend with the ring through his chin? He'd look awesome in a comic book.

Who else should become a puppet? Harminy, of course.
Most unappreciated character: Gunn.
Best baddies on Angel: Angelus, Lilah, Lindsay.

The puppet thing is done. The episode is hilarious, however, using the ideas of a previous one eliminates creativity, i think.
I liked Glory as the best Buffyverse Baddie. In Angel, I loved the Reaper from ssn 5 ep. 4 Hellbound.
the electro-girl, Gwen. I think that she should have been on a little more, rather than just fleeing everywhere when things got bad.

question 1: any of the characters are puppets would be funny, but probably overdone a bit.
question 2: my favorite baddies were the gentleman, the mayor, and adam (cause he was just so darn creepy...creepier to me than the gentleman even) and on angel i don't really have a favorite.
question 3: the most under appreciated character on angel..hmmm well most of the ones i would say are dead (doyle, fred, wes) but maybe lorn as well.

I personally wouldn't like to see another character as a puppet, been there done that.
Always thought the doctor (can't remember his name) from I fall to pieces in the first season could come back. He was creepy.
Kate Lockey. Had a really interesting arc. Disappointed she didn't return after season 2.

Underappricated would be Gunn, Fred, Doyle.
Big Bad: Lilah, very interesting charecter, and Eve, her replacement. I didn't follow Buffy, I like Angel better.

Whatever a comic does just won't be the same thing. It still saddens me to this day they cancelled that show. I'd like to see Angel slay the dragon at least... so that would be the thing I'd like to see.

Also really, really would've like to seen a couple episodes where Angel becomes Angelus for a stint while Spike is still 'good' and have Spike vs Angelus. We always got to see the past with them when they were both bad. And then of course when Spike was after Buffy, but we never got a chance to see the good Spike vs the bad Angelus. That would've been an awesome television battle sequence!
