Angel & Faith: A Tale of Two Families
by Victor Gischler, Will Conrad, Joss Whedon
Gah, losing Gage & Isaacs to the Buffy side of things caused a huge dip in quality for the Angel & Faith comics. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: Gischler does not know how to write these characters. It’s particularly obvious with Fred and Drusilla, whose voices are totally lost here, but when original comics character Eldre Koh makes a big speech towards the end, I realized he really has none of them down. Certainly not Giles’ aunts or Nadira either. And Archaeus, who was such an interesting villain when he started out on Buffy, just putters out here. Plus Magic as a character, the incessant insistence of the importance of Magic Town, family vs family, and the weird Endgame moment at the end, make the whole thing cheesy and almost unintelligible.
