Lazarus Five Published by DC Comics 2000 Writers: Ray Snyder, Dan Jolley, and Tony Harris Penciller: Dusty Abell Inker: Jim Royal Colorist: Matt Hollingsworth Letterer: Bill Oakley Reviewed by Megan H. Lazarus Five is a five part comic book series which follows a group known as the Inquisition. The Inquisition has been given a second chance at living in order to fulfill a request sent directly from God. In each issue, we learn about a different member of the group. First is Mordecai, who in his previous life had a wife and daughter and was a practicing physician. Mordecai was ridiculed out of his job when two bodies he was set to autopsy disappeared while he was away. Second is Hank, who we learned was raised by the Inquisition because he died not long after birth. Third is Digit, a human with a really long tail. Fourth is Jeb, a former priest, who one day was approached by the angel Michael. Michael came to him and told him that he would not age anymore if he were to dig deeper into the invasions. Our final character is a man named Holy. Holy experienced these invasions first hand when he was at church with his family. They all turned demonic and Holy was forced to execute all of them. When the locals found out what had happened, they sentenced him to death. The group has learned about several locations where monsters are coming tears. They set out to several of these locations to fight off the monsters, and close up the portals they are coming through. At one particular location, they find a shoe print which they soon realize belongs to one of the bodies that left the morgue under Mordecai’s watch, This is an interesting little series. It reminds me of the B.P.R.D and Hellboy universe. The graphics are really well done, with many vibrant colors. I would definitely recommend this to fans of B.P.R.D and Hellboy, as well as those who love anything involving the undead. Unfortunately, there is no trade paperback of this series, so if you are interested check your local comic shops for the back issues of these.
