“STRIFE’S CHEESY, SASSY ONE-LINERS SHINE NEXT TO WAR’S DEADPAN IRRITATION AT EVERYTHING.”
With paradise burning, humanity has been relocated to start anew. But The Council believes Lucifer still plots against the humans (who are integral to The Council’s machinations). With Death and Fury elsewhere, it’s up to War and Strife to team up, buddy-cop-style, and put a stop to the demons’ plans. Starting out by taking the fight to Samael, whose fortress is under siege, they temporarily join forces to track down and destroy the mysterious superweapon that Lucifer is having constructed.
Genesis has the tone of an edgy ’90s comic, but is able to wink at its own darkness. It never takes itself as seriously as something like Spawn. As it’s a prequel, there’s plenty here that builds on Darksiders lore for fans to latch onto, but the story is also light enough to ensure anyone less in the loop can still have fun. War and Strife are a classic comedy double act – Strife’s cheesy, sassy one-liners shine next to War’s deadpan irritation at everything happening (though they do share some closer moments on their journey).
