Lucifer #25

In "Purgatorio Part 1 of 3," Lucifer’s realm becomes a battleground of secrets and shifting loyalties as the Lilim arrive to confront the Basanos, who now claim dominion with a chilling plan involving Jill Presto. Meanwhile, Elaine’s spirit stumbles upon Lucifer’s charred remains, guarded by Meleos—the ancient architect of the Basanos—whose presence hints at a deeper, older design. Written by Mike Carey and illustrated by Peter Gross, with inks by Ryan Kelly, colors by Daniel Vozzo, and letters by Comicraft, the issue’s cover by Christopher Moeller captures the weight of this turning point.
