Mini-Series Premiere. Good Omens meets Curse Words in this new series from the duo behind smash-hit Eight Billion Genies! The Lucky Devils is a tale of two rebellious demons who decide to start a revolution in Hell-and the two ordinary, 20-something humans they're going to manipulate to do it. A cheeky, satirical look at Good and Evil, The Lucky Devils explores Faustian bargains and temptation in a rip-roaring, hilarious new way.

    All in all, this first issue has a lot to offer, and has hooked me! The character introductions and world-building were spot on, and I immediately felt familiar with the so far small cast of characters, and a basic understanding of The Devils' motivations. There are so many questions left unanswered and avenues to explore that I cant wait for the next issue. Read Full Review

    I love Browne's art style in this first issue. The two worlds are uniquely balanced and I love the character designs, especially when they are succumbing to the influence of the devils as well as the hell these creatures come from. Read Full Review

    Charles Soule, Ryan Browne, and the entire creative team have delivered a comic book that's both entertaining and introspective. At its core, The Lucky Devils #1 asks a profound question: what does it mean to be a good person in a world where evil forces are constantly trying to pull us down?

    Better than average, but still pretty lame. It read like a teenager who just take their first philosophy class.
