Angel 6×08 - After the Fall

La storia di Gwen
Stavolta tocca Gwen, povera ragazza proprio quando aveva finalmente riacquistato il controllo sul proprio potere elettrico, gli scoppia in mezzo agli occhi un’apocalisse che gli fa perdere il controllo sulla sua elettricità, il tutto condito con l’aver fulminato e carbonizzato la sua ultima fiamma.

La storia dei Civilians

Meccanismo ormai rodato su molti fumetti, ogni volta che avviene un grande evento nel mondo narrativo, si presenta l’occasione per mostrare il punto di vista della gente comune, i civili.
Si concentra in particolare su un ragazzo che ogni giorno con un cartello davanti ad un cinema afferma che la fine del mondo è vicina, fino a quando non lo è davvero con tutte le conseguenze annesse.

THE STORY:
The acclaimed creative team behind MARVEL ZOMBIES 3 returns…with another adventure that takes place in the Marvel U! The vampire. The witch. The werewolf. The muck-monster. The devil. They’re nobody’s idea of heroes, but they’re all that stands between our world and an unstoppable apocalypse! They’re the new Midnight Sons, and their quest to track down the undead who escaped from A.R.M.O.R. will lead them around the globe—and right to a cruise ship overrun with undead undersea-dwelling cannibals! Can this monstrous team stop the “red tide” before it unleashes untold horror upon the mainland? Not if the Merc With Only a Mouth has anything to say about it! Yes, writer Fred Van Lente and artist Kev Walker—the guys who made IGN.com say “MARVEL ZOMBIES 3 may actually rank as the best in the series”—are back again, unleashing the flesh-eaters for another roller coaster ride of gore, action, gore, thrills, gore and gore!
