The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of NANCY IN HELL ON EARTH #3 from Image Comics. El Torres writes, and Enrique Lopez
Lorenzana draws.
Nancy Simmons is having a bad day. She’s dead, the world is
being assaulted by angels bent on destroying humanity (with nukes, by the way),
and she and Lucifer are forced to make a deal with the “man” who killed her in
order to stop the lunatic controlling the whole attack. Apocalypse, anyone?
Apparently the only prerequisite for successfully taking
down an angel with a chainsaw is having traveled between worlds. If you can get
your head around that fact, you’ll be right at home in this miniseries. There
is a twisted plot (though I think I’ll need issue 4 to figure it out) but it’s
rather fun, and the art is oddly real (warning: angel nudity). I’m still not
sure who the good guys are, other than Nancy ,
and I’m not sure it matters.
This is an entertaining book which deals with apocalyptic
themes without bringing zombies into it. An oddity in this day and age, but a
worthy one. It’s certainly worth checking out.
NANCY IN HELL ON EARTH #3 is available now at your FLCS or
by order from imagecomics.com.
