Comic Vs TV what do you prefer?

With great respect the whole Warren thing in season 6 was a big deal, for heavens sake

I'd say that even if you find Jeanty not 'adult' enough for your tastes the artwork pretty clearly indicates that Joss remembers Warren being flayed alive. If he forgot anything it wasn't from S6 but the S7 point about the First appearing as any dead person it wants. Or rather any person who had once been dead in the case of Buffy or near death on the way to becoming undead in the case of Spike. It's a little complicated so maybe what he meant when he said he "forgot" was that he forgot to make it absolutely clear to letter-writers not paying attention to the text (which nowhere has Warren stating that he was never dead) that Warren had died in one of the many senses of the word at least momentarily before becoming whatever non-human (because that was explicit) thing he is now.

You shouldn't have to be filling in the blanks for him like that. Something that I notice a lot of the series readers are constantly being asked to do, and which quite frankly is getting on my nerves somewhat.

It is hard having to think about a story.

No he just plain out and out forgot love. There's no excuses.

"It is hard having to think about a story."

Oh I know love. maybe Joss should bare that helpful little comment in mind next time undertakes such a project again.
