Angel & Faith: Live Through This - Christos Gage, Rebekah Isaacs, Phil Noto, Joss Whedon Angel & Faith picks up roughly where season 8 of Buffy left them: while under the possession of Twilight, Angel killed Giles. Naturally, he decides to make this right by bringing him back from the dead. Naturally, Faith realizes that this means he's no less dangerous, barely sane, and worth watching very, very closely.

If, like me, you were less than enthused by season 8, the first volume of Angel & Faith will be enough to get you excited about the comics again. Some of the best characterization I've seen yet, back to the sort of storytelling that Buffy and Angel so much fun in the first place (read: there are no dragons). I'm also pleased to note that you don't need to have read Angel: After the Fall to understand where Angel is coming from. The entire events of that series are covered in a panel or two and generally don't seem to bear any weight here. (A nice side effect of After the Fall having been published by a different company.)
