Angel & Faith: Season 9, Volume 1 by Rebekah Isaacs, Christos Gage, Joss Whedon, Phil Noto, Chris Samnee
5.0
Can I just say YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I've loved Faith since she appeared in season 3 of Buffy. Yes, she had some issues and kind of went bad but when she reappeared in Angel and had that break down in the rain...BRILLIANT. Also, I think the dynamic between Angel and Faith has always been one of my favorites so I was super excited to see that they got their own seasons. However, I probably should have finished reading Buffy season 8 before starting this because major spoilers happened. So I will be going back and finishing that and paying more attention to where things fall in this universe lol
The main arc of this story is Angel is trying to atone for something he did at the end of Buffy season 8 - in total Angel fashion. Faith is there trying to bring Angel back and stop him from losing himself completely in this mission. She's also trying to watch out for the new slayers and deal with her own issues, because let's be honest, it's Faith and she has a lot.
The story was fun and moved well. We got to see some old favorites make appearances along with references back to the show. This is one series I am super excited to see where it goes.
