I mean, Gabriel is named as bringing the message to Mary, and it's hard to ignore that. Mostly, they just dropped whole books that dealt with too much Angel stuff.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658526372996117205.post-66273942311009612062016-04-25T05:10:35.427-07:002016-04-25T05:10:35.427-07:00I bet there's an interesting story in how they...I bet there's an interesting story in how they decided which angels to cut out.
