Angel: Season Six Volume 1

UPDATE: If you are confused by the ordering of this book, check out the comments of this review.To think I was going to lay down $100 for the Premiere Edition of Angel: After the Fall, when I can get the entire series, plus Spike: After the Fall and two bonus volumes on the end (Aftermath and Last Angel in Hell), in these two volumes for around $50! Can't wait to get my hands on the second one.As an avid fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, I read the continuation of the television series very soon after finishing Season 5. I got all four volumes through the library, and got my hands on Spike: After the Fall through eBay. I honestly loved it—Lynch, under Whedon's supervision, is an incredible writer who very much fits the tone and humor of the TV series—and now it's all collected together in this nice two-volume set.My only real gripe so far is, ironically, that the comics in this book are in chronological order. The book presents First Night (After the Fall Volume 2), then Spike: After the Fall (previously considered a spinoff), then After the Fall Volume 1, then After the Fall Volume 3. While this is the order in which events happen, I feel like some readers might be a little lost reading in this order, because First Night assumes you already know things that are established in the first volume of After the Fall. In my opinion, Whedon and Lynch shouldn't have decided to tell the story in that order in the first place, but since they did, it's definitely best to be read in that original order. But, as someone who's already read the entire series, this doesn't affect me as a collector.If you're looking to get into the canonical comics that tell what happens after Angel and Buffy, Angel: Season Six (both volumes) is one of the best ways to start, beginning immediately after the series finale of Angel, and ending before any other canonical material takes place. If you want to continue on from here, check out Spike: The Complete Series (also by Brian Lynch), and then you can finally get started on Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight. Good luck, and happy reading!

Extremely fast shipping and honestly seemed Like New condition ! Packaged very well and exactly what was listed. I am excited to read- ignore the purple sticky tags on the side, I added those to mark which publications are in what order in the book. :P

I am loving the story so far, but after reading less than half the book (fairly gently), the first 10 pages or so of the book flew out when I picked it up! I can't believe how cheaply this book is put together. I was planning on ordering the rest, but now I'm worried about wasting the money.On the other hand, the characters (especially Spike) do come back very well in comic book form! I have never read a comic before, but I am a Buffy fan and thought I would give it a chance. It's been great getting to pick up wher Angel left off, especially since I was never too satisfied with that enormous cliffhanger!

Love the book and graphics. This is my very first graphic novel and its because I just finished seasons 1-5 of Angel tv series and I wanted more. The book follows all characters and very similar to the tv series on transitions. BTW Very fancy paper quality and book overall. It was put together nicely.

Good read!

I hope I get my money back because I never got the first book when I want it all three together and I only have the last two.

If you love Buffy the vampire slayer and the spin off Angel and you were sad about them ending and how Angel ended on a cliff hanger then you will love this. It continues the story.
