Angel + Spike #2

Set against a crimson, blood-splattered sky swarming with dark bats, this collected volume from Zac Thompson, Hayden Sherman, and Roman Titov delivers the brooding atmosphere Joss Whedon's vampire world does so well. A dark-haired young man strides forward with quiet intensity in the foreground, while a blond woman in a blazer watches from behind — the tension between the two figures giving the cover a charged, layered feeling. *What's Done Is Denied* is a compelling subtitle for a story rooted in vampires, guilt, and the past, and this 2021 BOOM! Studios collection is a fine entry point for fans ready to dig into that world.
