I really really wanted this to open up right after the end of the alley fight from the last episode of the TV show because it was such a crap ending thanks to the TV station cancelling it on such short notice. Sadly, It did not.My other peeve was the artwork. After seeing the Buffy Season 8 artwork, maybe I was expecting too much. This did not impress me. Sometimes it took a couple tries to determine who the character was supposed to be.
Joss Whedon is one of my favorite writer/directors because he does such an excellent job of making women real people, not set dressing. Much to my dismay, I think he fell down on the job here.
There were a couple of real surprises that I absolutely loved. Unfortunately, it just wasn't enough to give this more than 3 stars.

Angel After the Fall Vol 1 eBook Joss Whedon Brian Lynch Franco Urru Reviews
This contains Chapters 1-5 of the canonical continuation of Angel. I read them for the first time when I got this book, all in one sitting, and I was deeply disappointed. I didn't feel an emotional connection to the characters, couldn't quite "grasp" what was going on with them, thought events were rushed and characters' actions didn't make sense. Where was all that plot and character development time I'm used to in the TV series, not to mention the nuanced expressions and gestures that I didn't even realize were guiding my interpretation of the dialogue? All this and I do read comics.
But the book was so beautiful that I kept flipping through it, reading the author's notes, thinking about it. And I started re-reading more slowly, and I realized that the sparse writing was a benefit. You can't watch episodes of Angel over and over again without wasting a lot of time, but you can reread the comic in sections however long it takes you to catch the wit, to understand the action, and to develop empathy for the characters. And there's more to the After the Fall world than that.
There are promising, intriguing new characters and plenty of space for those that didn't realize their full potential previously. The idea of camaraderie in fighting against evil is expanded as a few refuges for "good" in the middle of hell attract both demons and humans. Capable Connor shines, Wesley's in a gray area, one of our own is lost to evil again, and Angel's stubbornly holding onto why he fights after the last disastrous result.
This comic's strengths are in the world it creates through large, gorgeous panels and a wide cast; the Buffyverse and Angelverse traditions of struggle, redemption, and interaction; and the requirement that the reader tap into his or her imagination. Because, after all, hasn't Angel's strength always been that it makes us think, feel, confront our own problems, and feel strong? After the Fall is in many places dark, hopeless, and painful, but you'll also get that warm, fuzzy feeling of family and the determination to fight your demons no matter how many dragons and super-powered friends you need to help you do it.
When I heard that the Buffy and Angel series had continuations in comic form, and that Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy and Angel) was actually involved... game changer. This story picks up a few months after the series ended and it's just great to read about what happened to everyone. The comics are definitely more intense because they can go places that the series couldn't. It's darker, gorier, a little more adult, and perhaps a little more campy... Personally, I like it. The book itself is softcover, but very high quality paper. Illustration is beautiful, both on the covers and in the comic itself. Story is a little confusing at times, but the characters all feel like the characters you know and love. If you loved Buffy and Angel and want to know how their story continues, and you're okay with comics as a medium, BUY THIS!
If you're someone who needs to read things chronologically, some direct prequels to the events of this comic are
-Angel After the Fall First Night. This is volume II of the series but actually takes place before the events of Angel After the Fall Volume I
-Spike After the Fall. This volume account for what happened to Spike between First Night and Angel After the Fall Vol I.
