Jan 29, 2025I'm not gonna lie, Lucifer was making some strong points. The opening act was fun and campy. The fight with Lucifer was big and intense. The descent into Hell was beautiful and horrific at the same time. There's a lot of good in this issue, but ultimately felt like a filler episode. Lucifer's monologue, however awesome, still drags down the pacing a bit. This issue was good enough and I'm still enthralled in the series overall. Read Full Review

Feb 01, 2025And it IS silly. Quite. Its actually kind of refreshing to see Lucifer as being something lesser than omnipotent evil. The fact that he actually kind of needs The Violator also elevates the power of the title villain quite a bit, making for an interesting sort of power dynamic that feels pretty cool in its own way, but there isnt a whole lot being explored on the page that adds a whole lot to the nature of good, evil, gods and demons that hasnt already been explored a million different places before.
