− | '''''Angel''''' |
+ | '''''Angel''''' was an comic book series from ''[[IDW Publishing]]''. The title began as a limited series subtitled ''After the Fall''. This storyline lasted for seventeen issues, after which IDW chose to continue the series as an ongoing with new writers. While ''After the Fall'' was plotted by [[Joss Whedon]] and considered [[canon]], the canonical status of subsequent issues is more ambiguous. |

− | The title began as a limited series subtitled ''[[Angel: After the Fall|After the Fall]]''. This storyline lasted for seventeen issues, after which IDW chose to continue the series as an ongoing with new writers. While ''After the Fall'' was plotted by [[Joss Whedon]] and considered [[canon]], the canonical status of subsequent issues is more ambiguous. |
||
+ | It was the official continuation of the [[Angel (series)|''Angel'' television series]], picking up where "[[Not Fade Away]]" left off. The series initially dealt with the consequences of Team Angel's uprising against the [[Senior Partners]], which was that Wolfram & Hart transported [[Fall of Los Angeles|Los Angeles to Hell]]. In this situation, [[Wesley Wyndam-Pryce|Wesley]] remained contractually bound to the sinister [[Wolfram & Hart]]; [[Charles Gunn|Gunn]] had become a vampire capturing victims under the pretense that he is rescuing them; and Angel's son [[Connor]], ex-girlfriend [[Nina Ash|Nina]], and old acquaintance [[Gwen Raiden|Gwen]] were working to provide a safehouse for the people of Los Angeles under siege by demons. Angel himself, and a friendly dragon, [[Cordelia (dragon)|Cordelia]], are forced to live in [[Fall of Los Angeles|Hell]] as Angel discovers he is now human and vulnerable. Issues #1-17 reflect this canonical arc written by [[Joss Whedon]] & [[Brian Lynch]], with art by [[Franco Urru]]. |
||
+ | At the end of [[After the Fall]], Gunn successfully killed Angel causing the Senior Partners to create a temporal fold before they sent all of L.A to Hell. With L.A returned to normal the second half of the series focused on the re-opening of [[Angel Investigations]], and the how the characters dealt with their traumatic experiences. The story also branches off into several one-shots & limited series involving Gunn, Illyria, & Spike. |

− | One month after the [[Fall of Los Angeles]] was reversed, [[Los Angeles|the city]] is still recovering from its time in [[Hell dimension|hell]]. [[Angel]] is adjusting to his newfound celebrity status, while fending off assassin attempts from the former [[Demon Lords]]. He wishes to re-open [[Angel Investigations]], but finds that his friends are too busy rebuilding their personal lives; he eventually re-establishes the detective agency with the help of [[Kate Lockley]]. [[Connor]] also takes part in his father's business, and in turn [[Gwen Raiden|Gwen]] assists to try and earn Connor’s forgiveness after her betrayal in hell. The team initially operates out of an abandoned church before returning to their old base, the [[Hyperion Hotel]]. Angel finds business frustrating at first, since many cases turn out to be either assassination attempts or people wanting to meet their hero. One such assassin, a [[Mayan Jaguar Warrior]] named [[Desdemona|Dez]], joins the team after betraying the [[Lord of Sherman Oaks]]; she helps the team investigate a bizarre case of animals being transformed into humans. The team gains another new member in [[Myresto Mor|James]], who claims to be a [[Potentate]], a race of warrior angels for the [[Powers That Be]] who were dispatched during the Fall. James helps Angel in defeating his fellow Potentates when they begin killing humans who are destined to commit evil in the future. |

− | Meanwhile, [[Charles Gunn|Gunn]] lies comatose in hospital, after having his humanity restored by the temporal fold. [[Illyria]] watches over him, protecting him from those wishing to do him harm. Gunn is eventually awoken by [[Non]], who plans to force Gunn to join her, but she is quickly defeated by Illyria and deposited at the [[Mosaic Wellness Center]]. Gunn and Illyria bond over their struggling humanity, and move into [[Winifred Burkle|Fred’s]] apartment together. They later travel to Fred’s home town in Texas to attend her uncle’s funeral; Illyria wishes to explore Fred’s past and her own humanity, while Gunn wants to comfort Fred’s parents. In Texas, they encounter Angel’s old enemies, [[the Scourge]], who use the [[Mutari generator]] to resurrect [[Baticus]], an [[Old One]] and Illyria’s former pet. Illyria battles and defeats Baticus while Gunn executes the members of the Scourge. Their enemies dead, the pair make their way back to Los Angeles. |
||
+ | The series included 44 issues, which were later collected in several collections. |
||
− | |||
− | Back at Angel Investigations, Angel and [[Groosalugg]] travel to the San Diego Sci-Fi Festival to recover the [[Flaming Sword]], a mystical weapon up for auction. At the convention, Angel sees a preview for the film ''[[Last Angel in Hell (film)|Last Angel in Hell]]'', an inaccurate depiction of Los Angeles' time in hell, starring [[Nicholas Cage]] as "[[Angel Cartwright]]". He also meets [[Spike]] and his friend [[Jeremy Johns|Jeremy]], who fall victim to a spell which turns everyone at the convention into their costumes. Spike is transformed into Angel, but it is the real Angel who ends up reversing the spell. Afterwards, Spike becomes a more active member of Angel Investigations, as does [[Betta George]]. Gunn and Illyria also rejoin the team after returning from their road trip. However, the team suffers an unexpected loss when [[Lorne]] sacrifices himself to save the entire multiverse; three entities, [[The Three (Discord, Disharmony, and Cacophony)|Discord, Disharmony, and Cacophony]], attempt to shatter the [[Music of the Spheres]], until Lorne uses his singing ability to stabilize reality. In doing so, he becomes "one with the universe" and watches over his friends from a new plane of existence. |
||
− | |||
− | Angel is kidnapped by [[Innovation Labs]], a corporation which sells immortality by turning its clients into [[vampire]]s. They plan to use Angel to manufacture vampires with their [[soul]]s intact, keeping him imprisoned in steel-reinforced medical plaster. Meanwhile, Connor appoints himself leader of Angel Investigations in his father's absence, but struggles to assert authority; Gunn in particular clashes with Connor and leaves the team to reform his old [[Gunn's Crew|vampire-hunting crew]]. Connor must also deal with the arrival of the [[Sisterhood of Jaro Hull]], a cult of female demons supposedly devoted to him. Illyria tracks down and releases Angel, who destroys Innovation Labs with the help of former [[Watcher]] [[Laura Weathermill]] and her partner [[Polyphemus]]; afterwards, Laura invites herself and Polyphemus to join Angel Investigations. While on a drunken night out, Spike gets dragged into [[Tansy Fry]]'s plans to reform the [[Order of Aurelius]] and open a "mini-[[Hellmouth]]" in Los Angeles. Fry invites Spike to join the Order as he, like her, shares [[the Master]]'s bloodline. He refuses and promises to put an end to her plans. This experience brings Spike into contact with [[Eddie Hope]], a human who had been recruited as a [[devil]] during the Fall of Los Angeles; since the city's restoration, Eddie had been tracking down those who had commited evil in hell. Spike and Eddie team up to defeat Fry and her minions, and successfully close the Los Angeles Hellmouth. |
||
− | |||
− | While settling in at Angel Investigations, Laura quickly exposes James as an evil higher power named Myresto Mor, who plans to turn the Earth into a demon breeding farm. When Gunn is captured by Eddie, who plans to kill him for his actions as a vampire, Angel Investigations arrive and reclaim their teammate, taking Eddie prisoner. However, Eddie escapes while being transported back to the Hyperion; reflecting on his mission as a devil, he decides to change and return to his family. James summons a [[Soul Eater]] named [[Liss]], who attacks Angel Investigations and kills Dez before being decapitated by Angel. Before dying, Liss accuses Spike of being soulless, although Laura later determines that his soul is simply corrupted by a parasite. While all this occurs, James begins his plans to impregnate the human race with demons, starting with [[Anne Steele|Anne's]] homeless teen shelter. Connor is kidnapped by the Sisterhood of Jaro Hull, who drain his blood in a ritual to become stronger. Angel Investigations unite to rescue him, but it is Connor himself who defeats the demons by exhibiting a new ability to turn his enemies to dust. During a heart-to-heart with his son, Angel realises he is holding him back and decides to go travelling alone, leaving Connor officially in charge of Angel Investigations. Spike also leaves to [[Spike (series)|find his own identity]], taking George with him, while Kate returns to being a police detective. |
||
− | |||
− | Seeking answers about her own nature and purpose, Illyria leaves the team to go on a personal quest. Spike advises her to return to the [[Deeper Well]], and helps her on the initial stages of her journey. Upon arriving at the Well, Illyria regains her powers and embraces her humanity, but unleashes the Old One [[Arsgomor]] in the process; she uses her powers to give Arsgomor a second chance by regressing him to a fetal state. Meanwhile, Connor moves Angel Investigations to new offices while the agency continues to look into James' activities. Anne comes to them for help, having been impregnated by James, just as the team hears news from Kate about Angel's apparent death in a car explosion. Meanwhile, Gunn starts to consider Connor a threat when Polyphemus reveals that the Sisterhood's ritual is transforming him into a higher power similar to James. With information and weaponry attained from [[Wolfram & Hart]], Connor leads his team in confronting James at his facility, but they are quickly outmatched and Polyphemus is killed. |
||
− | |||
− | Meanwhile, following his car accident, Angel wakes up in a dystopian future in which James has succeeded and the entire Earth is a demon factory. He is met by [[Darrow]], the Wolfram & Hart lawyer responsible for bringing him to the future, and a time-travelling Illyria. Despite their reservations about trusting Wolfram & Hart, Angel and Illyria accept their help in order to defeat James. However, when they find him, James has been killed by his sister [[Rowant Mor|Rowant]] so she could reclaim Earth as her own. Darrow uses the [[Vanishing Gem]] - capable of killing a god - against Rowant, but is betrayed and killed by his colleague [[Mendoza]]. Illyria returns Angel to the present with the Gem, where he uses it against James. Connor then uses his new powers to transport Anne's baby into James, killing him but leaving the baby unharmed. Anne decides to raise the baby, who Angel realises is the Darrow he met in the future. Angel later confronts Wolfram & Hart at their L.A. offices, and tells them to get out of his town. He then resolves to do whatever he can to prevent a future as bad as the one he witnessed. |

Revision as of 10:33, 8 November 2019
- ↳ Note: This article is about the IDW comic series. For other uses, see Angel.
The canonicity of this article's subject remains dubious. Though it doesn't contradict official continuity, it has not been referenced in any confirmed canonical material. |
Template:AngelComicBooks
Angel was an comic book series from IDW Publishing. The title began as a limited series subtitled After the Fall. This storyline lasted for seventeen issues, after which IDW chose to continue the series as an ongoing with new writers. While After the Fall was plotted by Joss Whedon and considered canon, the canonical status of subsequent issues is more ambiguous.
Premise
It was the official continuation of the Angel television series, picking up where "Not Fade Away" left off. The series initially dealt 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 had 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 & Brian Lynch, with art by Franco Urru.
At the end of After the Fall, Gunn successfully killed Angel causing the Senior Partners to create a temporal fold before they sent all of L.A to Hell. With L.A returned to normal the second half of the series focused on the re-opening of Angel Investigations, and the how the characters dealt with their traumatic experiences. The story also branches off into several one-shots & limited series involving Gunn, Illyria, & Spike.
Continuity
The events took place after "Not Fade Away", but before "The Long Way Home, Part One".

Angel travels to Santa Monica to protect Connor from a demon lord whose son Angel killed. Gwen tells Angel that there's a new player in the game, and shows him a phrase written in blood. Angel realizes who the person is and heads to Beverly Hills, where he reunites with Spike, who has become lord of the area and lives surrounded by harem of humans and demons. Angel and Spike fight briefly, and Illyria appears in defense of Spike. Meanwhile, Gunn has kidnapped Betta George and reveals that he blames Angel for being sired and wants revenge. | |||||

Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Franco Urru | ||||
Angel is attacked by Illyria, and gravely wounded. The Hell dimension is playing havoc with Illyria's powers, and she is time-skipping as she did in "Time Bomb". Connor arrives revealing that he and Spike have been working as partners; Spike's "Hugh Hefner" lifestyle is part of his act. Angel confronts the Lords of Los Angeles, and challenges them to a battle for all of Los Angeles in two days. On the final page, Angel's inner monologue reveals his wounds are mortal, and he is no longer a vampire. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Four" | 4 | February 20, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Franco Urru | ||||
At Wolfram & Hart, Angel is healed through mystic chants that fix his mortal wounds. Two demons arrive and beckon Angel to follow them, while outside, Gunn prepares for an attack on the building. Angel and Wes are taken to the town of Silver Lake, which is ruled by their old ally Lorne, who notifies them of his neutral stance concerning the upcoming battle. After Angel has a reunion with Groosalugg, Gunn and his vampire minions plant a bomb in the empty Wolfram & Hart building, completely destroying it. Wesley's ghost fades away as Angel prepares for the battle ahead. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Five" | 5 | March 19, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Franco Urru | ||||
Wesley has been transported to a void, where he has an argument with a disembodied voice over his role of being the last representative of Wolfram & Hart. Angel's allies consider their options with Spike being the most vocal about his desire to depart. The battle begins with Angel and all his friends at his side, thanks to Lorne's last minute rousing. Spike asks Angel for help concerning Illyria, as Wesley is returned from Hell and joins his companions. Spike reveals he never would have come to aid Angel had he known Wesley would be there. Illyria turns her attention to the scene, notices Wesley's arrival, and reverts back to Fred. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Six" aka "First Night, Part One" | 6 | April 2, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: various | ||||
Bookended by images of Betta George in captivity, the 'First Night' stories of Spike, Connor, and Lorne are presented in three sections. In the first section, Spike switches from self-congratulation and thoughts of retirement into defending innocents — including Illyria, who initially appears as Fred. The second segment displays Connor's internal conflict as he considers rejoining the fight, and is then inevitably drawn into it. The third section is presented in a cartoonish rhyming style, showing Lorne's path from Lindsey's murder to becoming lord of Silver Lake. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Seven" aka "First Night, Part Two" | 7 | May 7, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch | Artist: various | ||||
The second 'First Night' issue initially focuses on Wesley's after-death awareness, including a visit from an unnamed female temptress who is acting on the Senior Partners' behalf. She pretends to be Fred, but Wesley is not fooled. The scene then shifts to Connor's situation; Kate Lockley arrives, armed to the teeth, and "rescues" Connor, taking him to her well-armed lair. In the present day, Betta George is still held captive by Gunn's lackeys, and it is shown that Gunn's vampires have been training against captive Slayers. | |||||
File:Angel000a.jpg | "After the Fall, Part Eight" aka "First Night, Part Three" | 8 | June 11, 2008 | ||
Written by: Brian Lynch, Scott Tipton, and Joss Whedon | Artist: various | ||||
In the first section, Gwen is making out with a guy on the beach when Los Angeles is thrown into Hell. The change in scenery has caused the device regulating her power to stop working, causing her to accidentally electrocute her male companion. In the second section, a crazy guy is preaching about the end of the world when Los Angeles is sent to Hell. Finally, Gunn wakes up in a vampire's lair to discover he's been sired. Learning the vampires were ordered to turn him, he kills their leader and takes charge of the group. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Nine" | 9 | June 18, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Nick Runge | ||||
Angel and his friends defeat the Lords of L.A., who have misunderstood the true purpose of the Hagan Shafts. Lorne becomes the new Lord of all Los Angeles, while Angel goes to back to the Hyperion Hotel to do what he does best: help people. Connor makes his feelings for Gwen known to Angel. Wesley takes Fred to his corpse, where she reverts to Illyria, who reveals that Fred is still within her. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Ten" | 10 | July 2, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Nick Runge | ||||
Angel has a comic book-esque dream where a superhero version of Spike is protecting the city while the mortal Angel is now an old man. Spike is left looking after Wesley. Angel, Connor, Gwen, Nina, and Illyria question a vampire over who killed the lord in #1. Illyria reveals to Connor, Gwen, and Nina that Angel is now human. Realizing that Illyria knew he was human through her ability to detect power, Angel tells Illyria to use her ability to search for the vampires "sitting on the power". Gunn has Betta George attacked by slayers, and eventually, a desperate George uses his ability to mentally freeze them. Gunn then has George attempt to contact help outside of L.A., but George is surprised to learn that Gunn has tricked him; Los Angeles going to Hell has been covered up. However, Betta George has also contacted Angel for help. Angel arrives, ready to attack, after Illyria detected Gunn's gang, "vampires atop a structure brimming with power". Angel is horrified, however, upon recognizing Gunn in their midst. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Eleven" | 11 | August 13, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Nick Runge | ||||
Angel sends Fred away with Nina on the dragon, while he attempts to rescue Gunn. As Angel discovers that Gunn is now a vampire and his own life is in peril, Connor, Spike, and Gwen return on the dragon to help with the rescue mission. Gunn reveals his visions to Angel, then uses a magical talisman to reverse the spells on Angel: his glamour and all the healing spells. Angel lies bleeding, broken, and dying as the cavalry arrives, only to be shocked by Gwen's apparent betrayal. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Twelve" | 12 | September 4, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Nick Runge | ||||
Connor and Spike confront Gwen on her betrayal. Wesley is taken from headquarters to the scene of Angel's impending death, which spurs Fred's transformation into Illyria as she approaches the scene of a battle between Gwen and the dragon, whose name is revealed as Cordelia. On another plane, Angel is reunited with an apparition of Cordelia, meant to ease his transition. Wesley arrives and confronts Gunn with information from the Senior Partners: the visions are their own, and all they have wrought is part of a larger plan for Angel. He reveals Angel (and Angel alone) is still entitled to the future in the Shanshu prophecy, and delivers Angel a glimpse of it. Angel sees an image of himself as a vampire surrounded by dozens of dead bodies in the aftermath of an apocalyptic battle. This vision however, leads Angel to resign himself to death. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Thirteen" | 13 | October 22, 2008 | |||
Written by: Brian Lynch and Joss Whedon | Artist: Stephen Mooney | ||||
Spike finds Gunn's captured Slayers, but they overpower him and he is slain. The Senior Partners send their larger army (legions of dragons) to the scene of the rooftop fray, and Cordelia the dragon is killed. Gwen, seeking atonement, sacrifices herself to destroy the legion in an electrical discharge. Connor makes his way into the building and defeats Gunn in combat, kicking him through the window. Connor's pleads to a dying Angel and helps him realize that he would never become a soulless vampire again; Cordelia's spirit bids Angel farewell after reassuring him of his status as a champion of good. While the group desperately encourage Angel to keep fighting and survive, Spike re-emerges seemingly alive, accompanied by the three Slayers who killed him. Gunn, on the streets, encounters Illyria and through feigning sadness and remorse, triggers her transformation into Fred, before he surreptitiously shoots her in the chest. | |||||
"After the Fall, Part Fourteen" | 14 | November 19, 2008 | |||

A new demon army arrives in Los Angeles and takes Angel's body so that Angel can be resurrected to fulfill the prophecy. The source of Spike's own seemingly-impossible resurrection is revealed as a five-minute time reset used by Gunn to train his vampires against Slayers. Groosalugg and his black winged horse, also named Cordelia, slay many of Wolfram & Hart's dragons. Despite being interrupted by the demon army, Gunn manages to successfully restore Illyria to her original demonic form, with the intent of using her fully-restored powers to rewind time to before the Fall permanently. However, George looks within Illyria's mind: her frustration at being unable to create order leads her to decide to wholly collapse time - and with it, all existence. | |||||
