Somehow I missed getting issue 1 of Angel, After the Fall. All the stores are out so I'm waiting for the re-issue. Here's the problem. I picked up #2. Should I just go ahead and read it? It's got Spike on the cover and I'm dying to open it. I like Spike. Alot.

ordinarily I would say to wait and read in order...
but actually they are still in early stages of introducing characters and situations,
so while you'll ruin the surprises that were presented in the first issue, you will get to enjoy cool Spike!
http://www.midtowncomics.com/
might have the missing comic (they have everything, with all the variant covers, at great prices)
just look up IDW Angel: After the Fall

here, I think this link will go directly:

(tiny link thanks to groosalugg goes directly to Angel: After the Fall #1)
I just learned that the 2nd printing of issue #1 should also be in stores this Wednesday! Yay!
(order the one for $3.39!!)

The 3rd issue comes out this Wednesday!!

I'd second the recommendation of midtowncomics--order all my "Buffy" and "Angel" ones from them, and they've got great service--but I'd disagree with Embers and suggest you wait 'til you've read #1. The story has already moved ahead a couple of months from the end of "Not Fade Away", so the first issue really does a lot of setting up what the new situation is.

And FWIW, tho he's on the cover, Spike only appears for like 3-4 pages in #2, so you're not missing a ton of Spike-y goodness by waiting a few extra days...

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

My situation is exactly the opposite. I got #1 but I was out of town when #2 came in and they have sold out of two different shipments. For some reason IDW was not allowing them to order their usual quantities (they've had plenty of the Buffy comics from Dark Horse) so they have not been holding copies for anyone, no matter how long they've shopped there.

Embers, could you please edit your post by providing a tinyurl link so it doesn't stretch the page out like this?

ecgordon I totally would, if I knew how...
and I hesitate to delete the link completely because I found it was REALLY hard to find the Angel comic at midtown comics, so the specific link made it easier to find....

is there someplace that teaches how to make a mini link?

Go to www.tinyurl.com, paste in your long url, and they give you a nice short one to use.

thank you groosalugg, I've book marked that!

I learned how to turn links into words over at Whedonesque but I've never known how to do that, or to shorten them, over here....

thank again.

And I hope everyone is able to get all their Angel comics tomorrow since all three should be in stores tomorrow!
