Amaterasu, Baal, and ten other gods from world mythology get reincarnated every ninety years; this time they’re taking the form of teenage pop stars and a little bit of hell breaks loose when Lucifer goes rogue. The premise promises lots of action, and I loved artist Jamie McKelvie’s style, particularly the splash pages, where there’s always something to look at. The collection also comes with variant covers and apocrypha that form the graphic novel equivalent of a DVD bonus menu. Reading more chapters feels necessary to make a more concrete judgement, but I’m definitely liking the start.
