Gwen Raiden

Gwen Raiden is a character from the TV series Angel who made the leap into comics continuity. An electrokinetic thief with the inability to safely touch others, she resurfaces in IDW's post-series storyline alongside Angel and his allies.

Gwen Raiden crackles into comics continuity with the IDW Modern Age series Angel: After the Fall, debuting in issue #5 (2008) courtesy of creators Chris Ryall and Chris Mowry. She finds herself in remarkable company — sharing pages with Angel, Spike, Connor, Illyria, and Charles Gunn — right in the thick of one of comics' most ambitious extensions of a beloved supernatural universe. Her appearances are concentrated but meaningful, and any collector who loves the darker, character-rich corners of IDW's Angel line will want to track her down.
