Lucifers VS Lucifers : Round 3

Propaganda under the cut

Lucifer (Obey Me !)

He's the real ex-angel Lucifer except him and his brothers fell cause God wanted to delete their sister from existence for feeding a human she had fallen in love with angel food to save him. God. Wanted to get rid. Of his sister. For saving a human.

So he did war about it, and lost, and now he's a demon with stress and a homoerotic bond with the Lord of the Devildom and 6 unruly little brothers which are the other avatars of sin.

He's like a middle aged single father and he needs a break I stg. He's getting grey hairs! Some of those are caused by the MC also! Because they're a little shit sometimes! Also he's hot. Wears glasses sometimes. I think they should actually salt and pepper his hair but no one listens to me and my huge brain. Give him wrinkles also. I know hes an ageless being but I want hot middle aged men and not just more twinks.

Sorry that's unrelated op my bad. Anyways his family is chaotic but he still loves them deeply despite it all.

Lucifer (WicDiv)

Luci is the heart of WicDiv. It's a book about her. Or, more accurately, it's a book about her death. She's an irreverant hedonist, a lonely teenager thrust into stardom, and, above all else, the Devil Incarnate.

WicDiv is incredible, a masterpiece of indie comics, and all about 12 teenagers (mostly 18-19yos) who incarnate as gods - they will be loved, they will be hated, within two years they will be dead...and Lucifer is the first to die, though she does it before her time.

SPOILERS, but she gets better, and the ending is incredible - they all announce that they're giving up their godhood to end the cycle / save everything, and Lucifer goes last, and follows the same, "I'm not a god..." format, only to go, "...I've never been a god. I'm Lucifer." And it's iconic. And the scene that follows it up, where "Persephone" goes to rescue her - "there were two girls in hell" ??? incredible.

Also, in universe after her death, people started wearing Lucifer Died For Our Sins t-shirts, and they started selling them as real shirts, and I think it's fucking hilarious. https://wicdiv.threadless.com/designs/lucifer-died-for-our-sins-dark/mens/t-shirt

when i was in high school i had an OC for "the wicked and the divine" who was a bigender reincarnation of Loki. This OC was the love interest of my self-insert OC, who was the reincarnation of Nephthys.

My Loki OC had short curly hair and my Nephthys OC looked like me with locs.

Fastforward a couple years to present day in which Gen V has graced me with Limoreau

I manifested that shit into reality. The personalities don't quite match up but let me have my victory, ok??

Someone who is good at art should redraw these panels from The Wicked + The Divine with Terzo......... 👀

There are a lot of things about Ghost that remind me of WicDiv, and vice versa. I highly recommend it to any Ghesties out there who haven't read it before!

[wicdiv]

As it's the 10 year anniversary (eek!) of WicDiv, we wanted to do something to celebrate. And so - a kickstarter for a coffeebook of all the covers, plus extras. It'll launch properly next week, so sign up for your reminder.

More details in this week's newsletter from Kieron.

I did this shoot 47 years ago (it was August) when I had to re-bleach all of my hair. I thought I'd take the opportunity to snap a few photos before I added color, so I was working on the worst schedule ever. But I got so many good photos from this so it's all worth it in the end. So, 98 years later, I've finally gotten some photos edited to post. Extremely fun to edit too.

[lateralmaxillary]

i'm very much planning on going back and fleshing out the bigger piece this was a part of but it makes a nice icon for now

You are of the Pantheon. You will be Loved. You will be Hated. You will be Brilliant. Within two years, you will be Dead.
