If you’ve been following the news out of this weekend’s WonderCon, you will have heard that Vampire Diaries writer (and Whedonverse alum) Andrew Chambliss will be co-writing Dark Horse’s Season 9 Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics with Joss Whedon. BuffyFest interviewed Chambliss about his collaboration with Whedon on the Buffy comics, his time working on Dollhouse, his favorite Whedonverse moments, and even dropped a few tidbits about The Vampire Diaries. (His lips are sealed about the “epic” season finale, though!)
Buffyfest: A lot of people have compared Damon and Stefan to Spike and Angel. Do you see the comparison?
Andrew Chambliss: I can see why people make the comparison. Stefan and Angel are both characters who strive to be good despite their dark pasts, and Spike and Damon often want to be bad in spite of the good that can’t help but come to the surface.
READ THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW AT BUFFYFEST.

I have a theory. It could be demons? No, not that one. We all know the saying “Nice guys finish last.” Well, I have a theory that most of those “nice guys” are not actually “nice,” but rather, losers. “Nice” is very often the adjective applied to someone about whom we have nothing else to say. It is the default adjective for our dealings with people out in the world—anyone who is not completely awful or absolutely fabulous is “nice,” causing the word to lose all meaning. Thus, “nice” often means mediocre, or okay-looking, or no-personality-but-at-least-he-didn’t-piss-me-off. I think that if there were an actual nice guy, he would definitely not finish last. In fact a girl (or boy) might be prone to forgetting all about “the bad boy” in favor of this rare specimen. Matt Donovan (or Matt Honeycutt to the book fans), I would argue, is one of these rare truly nice guys—“nice” in the very best sense of the word.
There are a number of different standard character roles in literature, film, and television, and amongst them is “the nice guy.” “The nice guy” role often overlaps with “the best friend,” “the sidekick,” “the everyman,” or sometimes, “the geek.” “Nice guys” usually have unrequited feelings for a “nice girl,” who, of course, should not be confused with the “nice guy,” since “nice girls” are a totally different deal. Yes, the world isn’t fair. The “nice guy” is usually overshadowed by a friend with special abilities—sometimes athletic, musical, or super-powered.
