Overview

A bold new beginning for Joss Whedon’s Angel, as he must team up with his mortal enemy Spike to save Los Angeles from the new threat of Wolfram & Hart.

TEAM SPIKE OR TEAM ANGEL?

It’s a new beginning for Los Angeles, as Angel has returned from the Hellmouth in Sunnydale...only to find that Gunn and Fred are now aligned with his mortal enemy, Spike. But as the two vampires must resolve their complicated history, new faces have emerged to threaten Angel and Spike’s missions. While Detective Kate Lockley is drawn into this world of horror beyond her imagination, a new enemy rises in the form of the demonic law firm Wolfram & Hart - and they’re determined to get Fred back at any cost.

The acclaimed team of writer Bryan Edward Hill (DC Universe’s Titans, Detective Comics) and artist Gleb Melnikov (Saban’s Go Go Power Rangers) kick off an all new, all different era for Angel, Spike and the whole team as they begin a new mission to save Los Angeles from it’s true enemy. And they just might pull it off if Angel and Spike manage not to kill each other. Again.
