* InconsistentSpelling: As is usual, there is no agreement on how to spell Wesley's last name. It's given as "Wyndham-Price" in ''After the Fall #1'' and "Wyndam-Price" in ''After the Fall #17'', both of which conflict with the canonical "Wyndam-Pryce".

Not to be confused with ''ComicBook/FallenAngel'', another IDW-published comic book with "Angel" in its title. It is worth noting, however, that Illyria made a crossover appearance in ''Fallen Angel: Reborn''.

* FaceHeelTurn: Gunn, who was sired during the unseen fight that happens following the cut to black in "Not Fade Away"
* {{Glamour}}: One would think Los Angeles literally dragged into Hell would be freaking out the rest of the world. But when one of Angel's allies manages to contact a friend outside, they flip on the TV...and see just a regular night in L.A. with police chases and such. While the man is stunned, Angel relates he already figured out the Senior Partners cast a spell so the outside world doesn't find it at all odd travel in and out of L.A. has stopped and nothing is wrong.

* TrickedToDeath: Bro'os, AKA Teeth, provides the other Demon Lords with Hagan Shafts, allegedly weapons that can kill an immortal and could be used to kill Angel. However, Angel reveals that he provided Bro'os with the shafts as he guessed that Bro'os would be the one most eager to betray the others; the purpose of the Hagan Shafts is to allow immortals to kill ''themselves'' in a suitably dramatic manner.
