The Wolf, the Ram, and the Heart, Part Six is the forty-fourth and final issue of the Angel comic book series. Written by David Tischman with Mariah Huehner and illustrated by Elena Casagrande, it was originally published on April 27, 2011, by IDW Publishing.
Synopsis[]
In 2005, IDW launched Angel: The Curse #1, kicking off a half-decade of Angel tales. Now, it all culminates in this FINAL ISSUE. Story threads dating back to After the Fall #1 all tie together in this explosive last hurrah for Angel and his team. Don't miss your chance to say goodbye to the original vampire with a soul before he heads off into the twilight...
(Well, not quite "goodbye"... stay tuned next month for a special coda and the final issue of Spike, too!)[1]
Continuity[]
- Angel thinks back of the friends he has lost: Wesley ("Not Fade Away"), Fred ("A Hole in the World"), Cordelia ("You're Welcome"), Lorne (Lorne: The Music of the Spheres), and Doyle ("Hero").
- Angel concludes the only way to prevent the future he saw is to keep the present safe. He will eventually accompany the Scooby Gang to a dystopic future (Future Shock) and assist them in the battle of the Reckoning, which allows them to ultimately change it (Finale).
- This is Angel's last chronological appearance until Twilight first contacts him (Last Gleaming, Part One).
