Past Lives (Buffy the Vampire Slayer /Angel)

the long version

A crossover graphic novel, collecting the story originally published in the monthly comic books *Buffy the Vampire Slayer* #29–30 and *Angel* #15–16. The story's setting is season four of the Buffy television series, after "Superstar". A huntress is stalking demons in L.A. Normally this would be a good thing, except she's leaving survivors and telling them Angel sent her. Now Angel has an army of demons on his tail, hell-bent on revenge. Meanwhile, monsters are fleeing the carnage in L.A. and seeking refuge in Sunnydale, where they're being dealt with by the Slayer. Buffy, Giles, and the gang learn about the havoc, and Buffy determines that she must go to Angel's side to lend a hand; a decision that does not sit at all well with Buffy's vampire-hunting boyfriend, Riley.
