Trapped in the bubble, Etrigan is constantly being challenged by other demons who want to take his position and his head, not necessarily in that order. Unfortunately, those fights are needed by Jason Blood. He is desperately trying to protect a small child whose visions are driving Etrigan into further rages. And he has to rescue another woman Etrigan despises, Madame Xanadu. Meanwhile the tenuous control, Blood has over Etrigan is dissipating quickly.
Andrew Constant and Brad Walker are doing a great job of building a story that keeps presenting threats that keep the characters constantly reacting to their chaotic new environment. They are barely given enough time to breathe, let alone figure out what is causing this and how to get things back to normal again.
We are still in the lead in art of the story and while Etrigan, so far, is well equipped to handle the threats that are popping up, it is becoming more apparent that he thinks the hellish version of Earth is an improvement. By the time, it comes to fix the problem, he may no longer be part of the solution.
While Constant (Torn, Broken Lines) keeps tightening the dramatic screws; Walker (Aquaman, Guardians of the Galaxy), with the help of Andrew Hennessy and Chris Sotomayor, is doing an amazing job of twisting the majestic, raw beauty of the southwest landscape into a brutal, nightmare version of itself. Against that background the demons attacking them fit in perfectly.
Can the ghostly Jason Blood figure out how to stop the slow expansion of Hell throughout the southwest before his fraying leash on Etrigan gives way? Can he and Xanadu find a way to stop this spread of Hell on Earth? There is only one way to find out. Keep on reading.
