Angel is a comic book series from IDW Publishing, originally published from November 2007 to April 2011. The title began as the limited series After the Fall for seventeen issues, after which IDW chose to continue the series as an ongoing series with new writers. While After the Fall was plotted by Joss Whedon and considered canon, the canonical status of subsequent issues is dubious.

Premise[edit | edit source]

The series initially deals with the consequences of Team Angel's uprising against the Senior Partners, which was that Wolfram & Hart transported Los Angeles to hell. In this situation, Wesley remained contractually bound to the sinister Wolfram & Hart; Gunn become a vampire capturing victims under the pretense that he is rescuing them; and Angel's son Connor, ex-girlfriend Nina, and old acquaintance Gwen were working to provide a safehouse for the people of Los Angeles under siege by demons. Angel himself, and a friendly dragon, Cordelia, are forced to live in hell as Angel discovers he is now human and vulnerable. Issues #1-17 reflect this canonical arc written by Joss Whedon and Brian Lynch, with art by Franco Urru.

At the end of After the Fall, Gunn successfully kills Angel, causing the Senior Partners to create a temporal fold to before the Fall of Los Angeles. With L.A returned to normal, the series then focuses on the reopening of Angel Investigations, and the how the characters deal with their traumatic experiences.

Continuity[edit | edit source]

The events took place after "Not Fade Away," but before The Long Way Home, Part One and Alone Together Now.
It has the spin-off Angel miniseries The Curse, Old Friends, Auld Lang Syne, Smile Time, Not Fade Away, Blood & Trenches, A Hole in the World, Barbary Coast, Illyria: Haunted, and Only Human.
