Cover: (click for larger) ANGEL: AFTER THE FALL, VOL. 4
Written by Joss Whedon and Bryan Lynch, art by Franco Urru, cover by Alex Garner.
With truths revealed, master plans laid out, and people dying, it's clear evil is winning the fight in Los Angeles. In this decisive story, a climactic battle will see Angel live free or die for the final time.
132 pages, $24.99.Seemed to be timely. So guys what do you hope for in the final ATF hardcover? I'd love some more drawings from the artists and a Lynch final statement of some form. Cover 16 for the final cover too!

I asked Brian in a Q&A at his blog if he had any early ideas about what we might see in the 4th HC and he replied with this:
I think all of that sounds cool, and I agree that a final statement by Brian would be really nice too.
Maybe notes/commentary on issue 16 or 17, like he did with issue 1?
Alex's cover for #16 should definitely be used, unless there is a new cover planned.

My favorite cover is still Garner's Angel vs. Gunn cover for #11, but his #16 is definitely a close second. I think any of Garner's covers from 13-17 could work for the HC, but #16 is by far the best from that bunch. Some of the others might be spoilery for those that wait for the HC's.

I would love the #17 Cover with all the cast... But it would not go with the other covers, so Angel #16 would be nice...

Yeah I'm sure I remember Brian saying he wanted the cover of Angel from issue 16 to be the HC cover for the 4th trade. I'd like a little message from Joss, seen as he did help plot it with Brian, I know he is busy but a quick e-mail to Brian would do the trick and then just add it into the book. Other than that I'd like: Unused pages/art More of Brian's thoughts on how the book turned out Another Q&A Any extras are good, Brian has done us well this far so I trust that whatever is put in it will be good, however a quick note from Joss would be brilliant and end the book nicely. IMO near to perfection even. Maybe spread the word to Brian and see if this would be possible, what do you all think.

I read you loud and clear, but I know he's swamped so's I don't think that's gonna happen.
I don't know the extras are yet, guess I should start thinking about it.

play.com has it up for a mid July release. That'd be awesome. It's showing up on amazon now as well (Canadian site specifies July 29). Here's the blurb ... nice how they work in a plug for Aftermath. The excitement of "After the Fall" continues in this latest offering from Whedon and Lynch. With truths revealed, master plans laid out, and people dying, it's clear evil is winning the fight in Los Angeles. In this decisive collection, a final climactic battle will see Angel live free or die for the final time. Soon the 'fall' will be concluded, and the Aftermath will be revealed! www.amazon.com/Angel-After-Fall-Vol-4/dp/1600104614/www.amazon.ca/Angel-After-Fall-4-HC/dp/1600104614/

This may not be the final cover, but amazon is showing the following which uses the art from #14:

I really hope we get a new cover. There's nothing wrong with that one, but I'm greedy, I want more art.
Btw, you have a awesome site. I might print out the timeline and use when reading the comics in chronological order.

That wouldn't really make sense for the epic final volume of After the Fall. It would have to be the cover to #16, it's just too perfect.

Cover and solicitation for Angel: After the Fall HC Vol. 4 released today: ANGEL: AFTER THE FALL, VOL. 4
Written by Joss Whedon and Bryan Lynch, art by Franco Urru, cover by Alex Garner.
With truths revealed, master plans laid out, and people dying, it's clear evil is winning the fight in Los Angeles. In this decisive story, a climactic battle will see Angel live free or die for the final time.
132 pages, $24.99.I would really rather they use Garner's cover for #16 as the HC cover, but I guess this is the best one after the #16 cover. Angel and Illyria given the glossy embossed treatment will look pretty cool, especially if they use blue foil for the cover text.

Aren't there any release date ? It will be released in July, but as for a specific date, we won't know that until the week before (most likely).

Brian posted this at IDW's forums today: Pretty sure the dusted cover is the one they're using.So a big YAY for that.
