Something next to normal, that's the thing I'd like to try

I think the Promethea comparison primarily applies to the general quality of the comic ( art, worldbuilding, plot), because it illustrates so well what you can actually do with comics and that you could tell a story like S8 or like Buffy and make it brilliant in that medium.

Very true. While the medium has had some impact on my dislike (mainly regarding the pacing and the lack of actors to humanize the characters), I certainly don't think it's impossible to do Buffy in comic form and do it well.
