Angel: Only Human #5 will arrive in stores on Dec. 23 from IDW Publishing. The issue is written by Scott Lobdell, with art by David Messina and Mirco Pierfederici and a cover by Messina.

Here's how IDW describes the issue:

"Broken and bleeding, Illyria makes one last attempt to defeat her old 'pet' Baticus in a battle for the ages, while Gunn takes a last stand against the remaining Scourge demons. But it's the gruesome scene he finds in the barn that may change everything he thought he knew."

David Tischman (w) • Franco Urru (a) • Urru, Dan Panosian (c)

A recently souled Angel is on a quest for a "cure" in San Francisco when, of course, something goes horribly wrong. Seeking out a Chinese healer, Angel encounters a mysterious girl with a strange tattoo, and quickly learns that life in early 1900s America is full of surprises...

Written, art and cover by John Byrne.
The world is in peril (again!), and only the most unlikely member of Angel's entourage is able to save the day. A special book-length tribute to the late Andy Hallett and his character, Lorne, presented by writer-artist John Byrne.

Angel Annual #1 will arrive in stores on Dec. 23 from IDW Publishing. The issue is written by Brian Lynch, with art and covers by Stephen Mooney.

Here's how IDW describes the issue:

"When L.A. went to Hell in After the Fall, so did thousands of screenwriters, one of whom wrote a movie based on Angel's experiences there. The first-ever Angel Annual presents an adaptation of Angel's travails, Hollywood-style, in Angel: Last Angel in Hell: The Official Movie Adaptation. Mooney presents two movie poster covers, one featuring the real Angel and company, the other with their Hollywood counterparts."
