Having forced a weakened Illyria to transport him to the time right before his own siring, Angel is determined to make a change-a change that could challenge his own existence. Deaf to the reasoning of Fred and Illyria, will this friend and goddess be able to stop the guilt-ridden vampire? And should they?
The hero considers changing the timeline, while another changes their relationship. Solid drama, terrific characters, good visuals, and a stunning conclusion in this installment. The concept of changing time is discussed well, but it's the ending that will leave fans screaming. Read Full Review
An interesting study in what regret is and how we overcome it. Both Angel and Illyria (and Fred) have differing ideas in how to deal with regret, but here is Angel's biggest regret playing out in front of him. No flashy monsters to beat here, just world ending decisions being averted. Angel's forced sacrifice in comparison to Illyria's emotional catharsis she received by changing history earlier this season poses a really interesting ethical dilemma that I hope gets fully explored by the end. The last page was weird but whatever I'll roll with it.
Boy, this is the comic no one cares about. But this was a really good issue, surprisingly.
