I love the cover, it's beautiful and the colours are amazing. More Illyria, Wesley, Fred (and Angel?) story. Yay!

I really like the drawings in the preview page as well, Lorne is perfect.

Wow that cover is amazing! By far my favourite of all of them (Buffy included) The faces are spot on in the preview page as well.

Looks as if we're going to get a showdown with Illyria and Fred! Well I guess two people can't share the same body with out getting ansty with each other - I mean Angel/Angelus didn't exactly hit it off either!

Sidenote: I have a work colleague called Neil Burgess, who always goes by the name Burge - I want a T Shirt with "Burge is my master now" on it!!

Oh lord, that's like some 80s heavy metal record. With the light shining out of Fred's fanny! Oh dear.

The covers awesome, but not my favourite. I don't think they captured Fred all that well, but it's still very nice. I still prefer the cover for Issue #10 of After the Fall, that one is just amazing.

And the preview pages are wonderful, *love* how well they drew Lorne.

I like the cover, but I really cannot get past Fred. Illyria, Wesley, and Angel all look great, and I like the idea behind the cover, but that woman does not look at all like Fred. I mean, the hair, the face, the body...oh well.

The preview pages make it look like Lorne's been found out.

the big issue is that the one frame of lorne that looks good is a straight copy from a promo shot. the other ones look terrible. and is that muscular connor or groo with connor's face? lorne's side-profile is just ridiculously malformed in the shot of him that isn't from a promo.

however--total love to illyria, wesley and angel. just amazing and perfect. and yeah, that's not fred/amy acker. the lips look like sarah michelle gellar's.

i do love how wesley has lots of blue running through him like he's transparent, whereas angel doesn't.

Interesting cover! I do agree - not much likeness to Amy Acker. But it's still an amazing cover!

And YEA! to possible Illyria/Fred/Wesley story!!!!

From www.idwpublishings.com:

"We've kept you waiting long enough? now, it's back to work for Angel. The gang's all here as the forces of evil attack from all sides. But Angel's not just fighting for his own life, the fate of someone he never thought he'd see again hangs in the balance. A new chapter of Angel: After the Fall begins, courtesy of Joss Whedon, Brian Lynch, and Nick Runge."

Do you think the person Angel never thought he'd see again is Fred? It'd be wicked if it was Cordelia!!!

WOW! I want that painted on my bedroom wall! Dont think hubby would like it but it is an awesome cover!

The text in combination with the cover makes me think that it will be Fred. But I'm curious what is going on with Fred/Illyria that her fate is in his hands ...
