An angel child being raised by criminals, and a demon child being raised by the nicest people out there. It’s the social experiment to end all social experiments. While the intentions behind the experiment were pure, secrets can only stay hidden for so long, before all hell breaks lose.

The Story for Issue #3

Rose Hornsby and Zachary Halo have no clue who or what they are. However, they can’t ignore the chaos that has been surrounding them lately. As Zachary decides to do a little research of his own, he’s quickly found out. From pets, to Rose, to a hoard of zombies he can’t seem to make sense of anything. However, a mail delivery offers another clue, with a lot more questions.

The Art

This art has been absolutely gorgeous from the start, and this issue is no different. The backdrops are beautiful with every expression perfectly detailed. The nods to each characters’ unknown origin is the perfect addition to this art, and a fantastic reminder as to where these kids came from. I also caught a nod to another Ghost Machine colorist. Just a reminder to always stop and take in the comic book art.

Overall Grade: 9/10

Can heaven and hell ever truly get along? As the story of Hornsby & Halo continues to unfold, the more it seems that is unlikely. Moving forward means letting go of the past. Something many heaven and hell subjects don’t seem fond of. However, the more we learn about Rose and Zachary, the more similar they seem to be. Yet whether they follow in the steps many think they’re predestined to follow, team up, or take their own route entirely… is yet to be seen.
