| After the great
first volume ("Loyalty & Loss") and a little less good second volume
("Heaven & Earth") this volume (which collects #13-18) rides the upwards
tide of the wave again, it being the best volume of the series so far.
It starts of with an Angel who falls from Grace and now has to learn to
adjust on earth. A character that proves to be a key character along the
way. Lighthearted but of importance to the story still. Alex still doesn't
know exactly what all this 'Chosen One' stuff is supposed to be about but
he draws his own conclussions and tries to be the boundary between humanity
and Hell by keeping the killing level as low as possible. |

| Something that
not all his friends can appreciate (Joe). Alex' puberty kicks in too. Scarlet
X starts her own quest to learn what she really is after hearing an unsettling
revelation about her kin in the previous volume. Something which tells
her she and Alex haven't met for the last time yet. On Christmas Eve Alex
meets Satan for the second time who gives him something of which he thought
he always wanted it (really by far the best issue of the volume, although
it doesn't add much to the main story). After that Alex and Ekimus each
go on their way to prepare themselves for what's thoughtto be the final
confrontation with uber-vampire Lisseth. |
