Heaven can wait. Hell can't. From the pages of THE SANDMAN comes LUCIFER, a new ongoing VERTIGO series starring the ultimate rebel. When fallen angel Lucifer Morningstar asked Dream of the Endless to sever his wings so he could walk among mortals, the former Lord of Hell thought he was making the right decision. But managing a piano bar in L.A. has lost its charm, and now the darkest star in the City of Angels is ready to get back in the game. Only this time he'd rather play God. Written by Mike Carey (THE SANDMAN PRESENTS: LUCIFER), with art on the first three-issue story arc by Chris Weston (THE INVISIBLES) and James Hodgkins (BATMAN) and stunning cover art by Duncan Fegredo (ENIGMA, TOTEMS), LUCIFER finds the title character facing a dilemma. At the end of THE SANDMAN PRESENTS: LUCIFER miniseries, Lucifer was left in possession of a "letter of passage" from God himself...a passport to any realm the bearer desires. Is the letter what it seems ? a one-way ticket that could restore Lucifer to either Heaven or Hell ? or just the latest move in a subtle game designed to remove him from the face of Creation? A saga of biblical proportions begins in LUCIFER #1, as Morningstar travels to Germany to find the answers to his questions by consulting a living tarot deck guarded by an angel. But getting a reading from the cards is harder than Lucifer expected, as the living deck takes the opportunity to escape its angelic guard and seek a new, mortal host...warping and reshaping the lives of everyone it touches along the way.Among those the deck transforms are three members of LUCIFER's diverse supporting cast ? a lonely bookworm whose secret desire may prove his undoing; a struggling female cabaret performer offered a Faustian bargain for wealth, fame and eternal life; and a young initiate in a neo-Nazi gang who may have gone too far in his quest for status and acceptance ? whose personal journeys are a crucial part of the series. From the seamy streets of Hamburg to the exotic Japanese underworld, Lucifer will face enemies with grudges as old as creation and make new allies who may be even deadlier than his foes in the ultimate quest to construct a brave new universe in his own image. This project is supported with a 4-color poster; a 16-page "flip book" preview (shared with SWAMP THING). Suggested for mature readers. Cover price $2.50.
