Angel, Fred, and Illyria, back in the present, find they've changed history . . . for the worse. There's a crack in time, and something monstrous, growing beyond control, has become the fount of an insect plague-a harbinger of the end of days! As Dublin is overrun, the trio must figure out how to destroy it, before it destroys . . . everything.
It's a fine issue. I enjoyed it because I have never read a story with this incredible of a premise and yet see the characters as realistic people. they are simply two immortals and a human dealing with their day to day situations. It works because they give credence to their predicament. This little episode helped our characters grow and learn something more about themselves and each other. like the old clich says: you learn something new everyday. Even if you've been around for a few hundred...or thousand...years. Read Full Review
Because of who I am, I stuck with this to see it to the end. However, Angel Season 11 #12 turned out to be lackluster for what you expect from a story coming out of the Buffyverse. With season 11 you looked forward to that next big thing after Magic Town, and an adventure through time that ultimately neglected itself in the end wasn't entirely worth the wait. It was a risky move to fall on time travel and it did no pay off. This all started with Angel tormented by memories of his past which linked to a big bad coming in the future. Though what was the big bad exactly? What was there memorable about what Angel did to stop this big bad? Read Full Review
A disappointing conclusion that could have gone for another issue to properly wrap up the story for the characters, while the art is extremely rough. Really, really rough. This series started strong and ended on a low note. The visuals are such a detriment to this finale. Read Full Review
It's tough to rate a book like this. I, personally, try to rate a book on its own, standalone, merits and not in relation to the overall story it's a part of. So...with that in mind, ANGEL SEASON 11 #12 is just ok. It isn't great but it's not a bad read in and of itself. As the conclusion to the most recent season of ANGEL, however, it is pretty damn bad. This season had no point and did NOTHING to further the characters or their "lives" and contributed NOTHING to the ongoing narrative that began with the premiere of the BUFFY tv show over 20 years ago. There was no antagonist (aside from, maybe, the grossly out of character Angel...OR Audrey 2,I guess), no consequences...no story, really. BUT, as bad as Season 11 of ANGEL has been more
