The volume collects issues from the early Lucifer solo series, written by Mike Carey with art by Peter Gross and others, showcasing the devil's cunning and moral ambiguity in a richly woven supernatural narrative.
In "Die Morgenstern-Affäre, 1. Kapitel," Lucifer’s journey to the First World begins with an unexpected guide: Rachel, whose Navajo heritage proves pivotal. Written by Mike Carey and Sven-Eric Wehmeyer and illustrated by Scott Hampton—whose distinctive art defines the issue’s haunting tone—this chapter unfolds with quiet intensity as Lucifer and Rachel navigate ancient realms and confront the Voiceless Gods. The cover by Scott Hampton captures the eerie, otherworldly atmosphere of the story.
In "Die Morgenstern-Affäre, 1. Kapitel," Lucifer, bound by a letter of passage, ventures into the fraying edges of creation where a mysterious force grants human wishes—unleashing chaos. Guided by the exiled Briadach, Lord of the Lilim, he seeks Paul Begai, a young man with Rett Syndrome unable to speak, only to arrive too late: his sister Rachel has just wished him dead.
In "Die Morgenstern-Affäre, 2. Kapitel," Lucifer journeys to Hell to confront Duma, a silent fallen angel, uncovering hints of a hidden force manipulating humanity’s desires. When Mahu abducts Rachel Begai to force Lucifer into handing over a mysterious velleity, the confrontation escalates—leading to a tense showdown in Los Angeles, where Lucifer returns with Rachel, only to face a new threat in Mazikeen, now under the velleity’s influence.
In "Die Morgenstern-Affäre, 3. Kapitel," Lucifer’s quest for passage to the First World leads him to Rachel, whose Navajo heritage unexpectedly makes her his guide. As they journey through sacred landscapes toward the Voiceless Gods, tensions rise—especially when Lucifer stirs Rachel’s anger in a way that changes everything. The story unfolds with quiet dread and mythic weight, exploring the cost of power and the fragile line between guidance and manipulation.
