It seems like there's going to be a lot of stuff that happens in the DC Universe that starts out in this mini-series. We saw in the Teen Titans where Kid Eternity pulled Brother Blood out of Hell, by accident, and delivered him right to the doorstep of the Titans. Satanus has won the war, and sealed of Hell until he consolidates his power, but . . apparently Kid Eternity slipped out right before that happened. We still don't know for sure what's going to happen to Lobo. Right now he's trying to get his hook out of the ground. It seems to be stuck. Much like all the magic heroes from the DC Universe. Well . . at least the ones that came down here. Zatanna is trying to make it to Purgatory. Apparently that's really the only safe spot in hell right now. At least until they can figure a way out. Accompanying her is Sargon and Ibis. Also Shadowpact is trying to gather up their members so they can retreat. Nightshade, Enchantress and Ragman have all found each other, but they still have to find the Blue Devil. What they don't know is that Danny has reverted to his human form, and Jason Blood, who has recently found him, is also without the influence of Etrigan. He's offering Danny something. I think he's offering to switch him back to Blue Devil. He'll be free from Etrigan's bondage, and Neron's, since he lost, but . . "Take this and you will once again be the Blue Devil. Take this and you willingly choose to live as a half-breed. But know this . . . infliction can be reversed. Acceptance is forever." Looks like Danny's got a hard decision to make. Dr Fate is flying around trying to figure out how to escape. But, he better hurry because Satanus and Blaze are looking for him. Also, Black Alice is up to something, but we don't really know what that is yet. Also Doctor Occult and the Supergirl Angel . . do you remember her from the last series? . . . they're trying to get to Purgatory also. So, either there's about to be a big party in Purgatory, or . . maybe somebody is trying to gather all the magical heroes together in one place. That could prove to be bad for everybody. I think this is a fantastic series. Keith Giffen is doing an incredible job with this story. He's gotta be in Heaven, pun intended, being able to play with all these characters. The arts been fantastic also. Tom Derenick is doing the pencils, with Bill Sienkiewicz doing his inks. Oh yeah, and Chad Hardin does the Doctor Occult series. I've really been impressed by this series. Unfortunately there's only one issue to go. It should be an interesting one.
