An interesting reboot for Angel’s character. I love the idea that he worked with a previous slayer and that his redemptive arc isn’t hinging on his interest in Buffy. I also love him pulling the AI crew together earlier on with Fred and Gunn. Lilith is an intriguing figure and I wonder what her true role here is, as well as whatever happened to Mara.

I don’t love this style of art, most of the characters aren’t distinctive enough. Mara looks like Buffy, and when Lilith first showed up, I thought it was just Fee-Fee the witch again. But the writing is solid.
