    This installment of Lucifer is perhaps the best of the series, so far. Mike Carey's writing is brilliant, depicting biblical fantasy like no other. One of the reasons for this is not the overall story, but for the stand alone stories that focus on the people who are affected by the titantic struggle between Lucifer's desire for freedom, on a personal and universal level, and those that seek to curtail his bid for liberty. The story about the young centaur girl who crosses oceans and worlds in a vain attempt to warn the Lightbringer of the impending doom about to befall his new kingdom is heartbreaking in its tragedy. Balancing out that story is one at the end with the hilarious squabbling sibling fallen cherubim Guadim and Spera who attempt to traverse the realms of pain with shoddy merchandise. Still, the star of the show is Lucifer, and the cataclysmic battle between him an implacable foe that wants his newly created world for himself is exciting, bringing back characters long absent, and featuring a cameo from a beloved character from the Sandman universe. For those missing Neil Gaiman's seminal work and those looking for a fresh take on weighty issues, look no further.

    With out giving too much away, this is a great spin off of the SANDMAN graphic novels. I would say that while the writing is not quite the same, the level of quality and storytelling is on par with the SANDMAN series. The character LUCIFER is just as witty and clever as in the SANDMAN series, and that's a great thing. The auxiliary characters grow and develop over time too, which makes reading this series so enjoyable.

    I would recommend this to any one who is a fan of the SANDMAN comics, or graphic novels. OR if you are into the Christian Occult (oxymoron?) this series has some interesting / though provoking ideas and concepts for the reader to consider.

    The problem with creating a realm outside of God's rule is that every creature on the wrong side of divinity wants a piece of it - or, in the case of the Basanos, wants all of it. In the fourth volume of Carey's excellent series, Lucifer is forced to defend against all comers. Being Lucifer, he's offended a few people along the way, a few of whom - Izanami and the Lilim among them - find this battle to be an excellent time to even old scores. To survive, even the Devil might need a little help.

    Carey neatly knocks the pins out from beneath Lucifer's vaunted self-sufficiency without humbling him in the slightest, and I can't wait to see how the burden of debts owed weighs on his wings. As an added bonus on top of the actual and emotional carnage, the author also gives us a note-perfect cameo from Death of the Endless, who really should get her own book one of these days.

    Though The Divine Comedy serves as something of a setback for the Fallen One, it's clear his fight with Heaven is far from over. Thank Carey we'll have ringside seats for the slugfest.

    This series starts strong and just ascends to the heights, an amazing, creative, clever work on its own as well as a worthy "sister" title/spin off from Gaiman's SANDMAN (you do not need to have read that to enjoy this). Better move quick though, as DC is no longer keeping this title in print.

    A great vision of the Morningstar. A delightful read.

    Mike Carey, Lucifer: The Divine Comedy (Vertigo, 2003)

    I'd thought the third volume wrapped up a story arc or two. I was wrong. Carey had more up his sleeve here as Lucifer, the Lilim, the Basanos, and Elaine Belloc all converge on Lucifer's alternate universe for a big, nasty struggle in which Lucifer finds himself help from a few places he didn't realize it was coming, the Basanos try to take over the world (so what else is new?), and the Lilim keep whining. Meanwhile, Michael may be back in Heaven, but it seems he learned some things down on Earth that don't have his boss all that pleased... once again, Carey takes the legacy of Neil Gaiman, runs with it, and comes up with a winner. Fantastic stuff, this. ****
