The Wicked + The Divine: Christmas Annual #1

Oh, I am here for all of this! The gents took a break from the main storyline to give us some backstory, mainly around some of the relationships:

Inanna and Baal - yes please! holy hotness Batman!
Lucifer and Sakhmet
Baphomet and the Morrigan
Tara and her music
Lucifer and Laura
Lucifer and Amaterasu
And
Baal and Laura

It was excellent to see all of our favorite gods on a more intimate level (was that slightly punny).


In the past, I haven't been a fan of the guest artists but these ones didn't feel jarring and didn't take me out of the stories, which I appreciated. It was just overall really a spectacular addition to an already great series.

Definitely recommend picking it up and reading it if you're a fan of WICDIV and it ends up not being a part of any of the bindups.
