Angel & Faith Season 9 #11

If you were looking for a great jumping in point for Angel and Faith; this is it. This issue marks the beginning of a new arc, and gives just enough references to past events to get anyone caught up. Along with the start of a new major plot line, we are treated to the return of several well-loved characters from the past. While the story is a little light on action this month, the dialogue is sharp, and the characters are well developed. We are left with a well-defined problem to be solved and the promise of continued humor and a pick-up in the action level on the horizon. I'm already looking forward to the rest of this journey!
