Lucifer #3
This third trade paperback of the 2014 Lucifer series collects issues #14–20, continuing the saga of the Lightbringer as he navigates a complex web of celestial politics and personal vendettas. Written by Holly Black with art by Lee Garbett and others, the story deepens Lucifer's quest for independence from divine machinations while introducing new allies and enemies in the realms of Heaven, Hell, and Earth.
In "Inferno, Part 1 of 3," Lucifer finds himself ambushed in Effrul by assassins loyal to Lord Arux, whose alliance with Amenadiel and Remiel sets a deadly trap. As Mazikeen pursues Susano-O-No–Mikoto—carrying two feathers that hold Lucifer’s power—she’s drawn into a labyrinthine clockwork castle ruled by Scoria the Artificer, who claims to be her long-lost husband. Written by Mike Carey and illustrated by Peter Gross, with inks by Ryan Kelly, colors by Daniel Vozzo, and letters by Comicraft, this issue features a cover by Christopher Moeller.
In "Inferno, Part 1 of 3," Lucifer’s arrival in Effrul ignites a deadly game of betrayal and ambush, as assassins sent by Lord Arux—secretly allied with Amenadiel and Remiel—pursue him through the city’s shadowed streets. Mazikeen races after Susano-O-No–Mikoto, who flees with two feathers holding Lucifer’s power, leading her to a clockwork castle ruled by Scoria the Artificer, who claims to be her husband.
In "Inferno, Part 2 of 4," Lucifer faces a new wave of assassins sent by Lord Arux—Braid, a relentless killer, and Virtus, a shattered cherub consumed by paranoia. As Lucifer dispatches Braid, the assassin’s body becomes a vessel for the cherub’s fractured spirit, twisting the battle into something darker. Meanwhile, Mazikeen is overwhelmed by Scoria, who reveals a terrifying secret: he’s drilled into the mind of God itself.
In "Inferno, Part 3 of 4," Lucifer faces a twisted reckoning as he prepares for a duel, aided by Duma in the desperate effort to purge the cherub from his body. Meanwhile, Scoria, driven by a perverse vision of legacy, makes a shocking decision that blurs the line between creation and possession.
In "Inferno, Part 4 of 4," Lucifer faces off against Amenadiel and Lord Arux in a high-stakes duel that tests his wit and will. As the battle reaches its climax, Mazikeen strikes down Scoria and Susano-O-No–Mikoto, shattering the enchanted feathers that once bound Lucifer’s power—unlocking his true glory in the aftermath.
