Is it at all possible that the series could go beyond the initial 12 issues? I know that Buffy was initially going to be 24 issues or something, but now they're saying it could end at as many as 50 issues....I'm not a huge buffy fan though so I haven't really kept up with that.
Or is it possible that it could continue in a different series that takes place after "ATF"? Just wondering, because 12 issues seems a bit short, and when you throw in the First Night stuff it will only cut into that further.

Whatever happens, IDW still own the rights to the Angel comics, so I don't think it'll be the last we've seen of the characters. That said, I'm not sure how brave they'd be to continue the story after After the Fall without Joss Whedon's name over the title.

Guess anything could happen. I wanna see how this story pans out first, personally.
If everything is returned to (relative) normallity when this set is over maybe we'll get a proper Angel continuation. I've always felt the setting made it a wise choice to call it After the Fall and not just season 6. It seems like a spin off kinda thing more than tradional Angel as it is far from traditional, like the pylea episodes.

I remember the series being stated as a 12+ Issue maxi-series, heavy on the +. I bet it'll at least go over by a few issues. I mean, we already know the story is getting bigger than it was originally intended to be. "First Night" was supposed to be a standalone, then it became a two issue mini-arc... and now it's three issues long! I'm sure that bumped up the number of "After the Fall" issues at least a wee bit.

I hope it lasts longer than 12 issues....hey Brian Lynch was just logged in! Too bad he couldn't confirm/deny this idea.
Anyway I do hope it lasts longer, plus we'll get more exclusive covers too (if it does).
Plus...the story = increasingly epic!

Well First Night alone, has gone from 1 issue, to 2, and now to possibly 3. So hopefully that means the "12" issues will be a lot more than that.
Plus I figure that 12 is just the till the end of this story. After that there'll still be plenty left to tell, and seeing how well the line has sold thus far, I can't see them just stopping it dead

I think that it will go from strength to strength. Im hoping that this isnt the last we get fron the Angelverse |

Any more epicocity and ATF will be so epic it will cause brain damage. |
