Dark forces conspire to break the peace between Heaven and Hell! As Zach Halo and Rose Hornsby try to reconcile with the astonishing beings they became the previous night, they get caught in a cosmic conspiracy to destroy the tenuous truce made between the angels and demons. Thirteen-year-olds shouldn't be made to fight for something so existential...
Can you have a true nature verses nurture experiment when supernatural beings are interfering? Only 2 issues in, and I'm loving this. As the kids struggle with who and what they are, they're also trying to figure out what kind of people they want to be.

So far, this title has been a pleasant surprise with new mysteries and more questions arising with each issue. This is shaping up to be potentially Ghost Machines sleeper title in 2025 as its hitting the right notes for the concept and making great use of its premise. Read Full Review
Its still a bit difficult to tell what specific voice this particular series is going to end up with as it all moves forward into its third issue.

HORNSBY & HALO #2 is an okay issue in terms of pace and action, but the main characters lack personality, and the chaotic action has a little too much chaos to follow. The central idea is a good one, but the execution of this series is, so far, lacking. Read Full Review
Plot
Rose Hornsby wakes up with the jewels she recovered with the help of Zachary Halo, she takes the opportunity and sells them, her dark side is beginning to blossom.
A group of bikers arrive in town, who are actually FIREWALKERS, demons who came to recruit Rose, but Zachary saves her. A mysterious being from hell begins to speak to Rose. But on the other hand there is an envoy from heaven who will intervene as well.
A lot of mystery continues to develop in the series, while the truce between Heaven and Hell is about to break. This installment lowers the level of action to show an evolution of the characters after acquiring powers.
Art
It creates a balance between naive art but with gloomy touche more
It was fun. Got a little confusing towards the end.
