Angel & Faith #6 Review

Image
I love it when a story grabs and holds on to you in the first few sentences.  Just grabs you by the collar, shakes you, and screams, "hold on tight!"  You just know that this is going to be the ride of a lifetime.  Writer, Christos Gage, does not disappoint with his opening inner monologue by Angel musing over the grave of Douglas Adams in Angel & Faith #6 .  The story itself is called Daddy Issues and boy is there plenty to go around.  A portion of the story looks into Giles's past, his early days of learning to be a watcher, a quick introduction to some very cool characters, who (in what I call typical Joss Whedon fashion) are then killed off by a horrible beasty in a quite horrid manner.  The result shows the disconnect between Giles's own father and the turning point of him becoming Ripper.  Further along you discover that Faith's own father is searching for her and I am sure that is going to bring a host of nail-biting, page turning goodness....
