Lucifer #2
Writer: Holly Black
Artist: Lee Garbett
This issue continues the riveting journey started in the first as we join Lucifer and Gabriel as they continue to unravel the mystery of who killed God. Their investigation takes them to Hell, where we get an amusing look at that realm’s brand of politics. But make no mistake, this book doesn’t skimp on the horrific elements. Will we see some Sandman next month? Stay tuned.
