Hmmm...interesting. I'm surprised that a mini-series would even be considered, but given how successful the Angel series has been I probably shouldn't be. Do we know who brought this idea up?

Here is Ryall's blog post which serves as our only information source so far. ryalltime.blogspot.com/2009/05/gunn-after-fall.htmlHopefully he will clear things up soon, like if this what comes next in the main ANGEL story or if it is like SPIKE: AFTER THE FALL.

I'm thinking this is likely to be similar to Spike: After the Fall. It will hopefully compliment the main Angel arc, but not actually be directly connected to Angel or his story. Either way, I hope Brian Lynch is involved. It would seem only fitting considering he wrote the Gunn issue that this mini-series is supposedly being spun-off from.
Edited: Thanks Wyndam for the link.

I actually asked Brain if he is involved in this miniseries over in his Q thread here. He said this.

I wish we could find out definitively if this is a spin-off mini-series like SPIKE, or if it really is the next arc in the main ANGEL title. There's kind of conflicting information that supports both theories. If it is a separate title like SPIKE, why isn't it called GUNN: ONLY HUMAN (since #23 serves as the launching point)? Since it has ANGEL in the title, that supports this being issues #26+.
NEEDZ MOAR INFOS!

Not sure if you're getting any before San Diego Comic Con. My advice, enjoy the news, don't fret!

Yeah, I really don't want to wait till July to get more info on this. It'll be so cool if the focus is on Gunn and Illyria, they could make a really great team. I just don't want it to be a seperate title.

Here is my official guess about what ONLY HUMAN is: Brian said the next HC (Vol. 6) would *probably* be 5 issues. That leads me to believe that ONLY HUMAN will be a FIRST NIGHT type mini-series within the main ANGEL title. Issue #26 will be about Gunn & Illyria after they leave town/drive away together and issue #27 may be about Spike and Lorne and what they have been up to. Then #28+ will kick off the next major ANGEL arc.

I really like that idea, Wyndam. I hope you're right. I am skipping right over Aftermath 18-22, I am not a big fan, and I am getting the next HC for Brian's work. I hope the extra two issues(since Dru story will take up two spaces) will be something just as good.

From the wording, I kinda just think it's a regular Angel story that starts with #26.

It could be Angel issue #26, continuing on from #23 and leads into #27, starting a new story

Not 100% sure, but I don't think any of these guesses are correct.

It looks like Urru's style doesn't it?

It looks like Urru's style doesn't it? Well the preview page at the top is actually for #23 lol. I chose that since ONLY HUMAN spins off from #23 and the page has both Gunn and Illyria in it.

Ugh, thinking about what this could be really makes my head hurt whenever I think about it. I wish Ryall just didn't say anything until SDCC. If none of those guesses are correct, sounds like there is a big chance it'll be seperated from the ongoing series.
