New Releases by Joss Whedon

Im Finalband zu Staffel 10 sorgt ein Dimensionsportal in den falschen Händen dafür, dass sich Dämonenhorden in die Straßen von San Francisco ergießen. Für Buffy und die Gang kommt diese neue Bedrohung zu einem extrem ungünstigen Zeitpunkt, weil sie genug mit sich selbst zu tun haben: Willow hat einen echt echten Job, Xander flirtet mit seiner Geister-Ex, Andrew wird vom Bösen versucht und Buffy und Spike ... na ja, das Übliche eben.

Buffy holt Angel als Verstärkung ins Team. Dass das weitreichende Konsequenzen in Bezug auf ihre neu erwachte Liebelei mit Spike hat, dürfte dabei auch ihr klar gewesen sein. Dass Angel aber auch ein wichtiger Punkt im Plan von Archaeus ist, bekommt die Gang erst mit, als es vielleicht schon zu spät ist. Schließlich sind sie alle mit dem Ur-Dämon verbunden, und der interessiert sich eigentlich nur für das neue Regelbuch der Magie. STAFFEL 10, EXKLUSIV ALS COMIC!

Angel is troubled by a spate of nightmares but has to leave the investigation to Faith and Fred. Discovering that Angel''s dreams aren''t victimless, they follow the trail to a slew of missing students from a local prep school. To get to the heart of the mystery, they attain gainful employment at St. Cuthbert''s Preparatory School, where the mysterious deaths are linked to a growing teenage-vampire population. Meanwhile, having joined Buffy and her gang to battle a fearsome and powerful new enemy in the States, Angel returns to London in the midst of the vampire threat. But he hasn''t returned alone, and he, Faith, and Fred suddenly have double the trouble--the fight is on in Magic Town!
