Original series creator Joss Whedon gave his blessing for the new iteration of the show that would be run by Tara Butters ('Agent Carter,' 'Dollhouse') and Marc Guggenheim ('Arrow,' 'Flash') and involves Oscar- and Emmy-winning animation studio ShadowMachine.
I saw the post yesterday, and suggested an animated version then.
Also, both Buffy and Firefly have graphic novel versions that continue the stories.
And some Firefly novels. I’ve read the comics, but not the novels.
Buffy comics went pretty hard on the weird button, so they would probably just ignore it and use elements of it for story.
I liked when Dawn was a giant for no particular reason.
