Summary: | Expelled from heaven, slandered and beset by a war of cosmic proportions, Lucifer decides to tell his own gospel which relates his transit over land, beginning with his terrestrial crossing as the incarnation of Jesus of Galilee. With Lucifer's help, Jesus inhabits various avatars that allow him to fully live the painful human experience: as the Nazarene, as the origin figure for the Mesoamerican god Quetzalcoatl, as Faust, drunk with wisdom and disenchantment, as a heretic who sought salvation in pleasure, up until a war veteran and ex-convict. Each avatar experience is a new circle of hell that resides not quite in some otherworld nor on our own soil.
