It's been a while since the new Dark Horse Comics Buffy the Vampire Slayer mini-series was announced, and Joss Whedon was always reported to be involved, but the latest news is that Whedon is even more involved than I'd anticipated. Apparently, he'll be scripting the six issue series himself, which will function as a canonical "Season 8" of the Buffy, picking up where the series finale left off. But since we've already gotten hints as to what the characters were up to, in the final season of Angel, does this mean that the Immortal will factor in here somewhere?
