I read this as soon as I finished the meh that was [b:Midnighter, Vol. 2: Hard|29633087|Midnighter, Vol. 2 Hard|Steve Orlando|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1520151841l/29633087._SY75_.jpg|49984048] and it turned out to be great.

There are high stakes, magic shenanigans, Midnighter kicking and killing, Apollo trying to battle for his own soul, and Midnighter/Apollo moments. There are a handful of naughty moments here and there where they, you know, busy (nothing above a PG-13, imo).

TL;DR: A good conclusion to the Midnighter/Apollo saga with a grand adventure and banter that might border the OTT line. I borrowed it from my local library.

I'm such a sucker for the Apollo/Hyacinth story and that's really the icing on the cake of love i have for these two

An ultra-violent retelling of the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. Cute.

Steve Orlando is a goddamn gem, so glad DC got him.

Definitely read his two volumes of Midnighter's solo run first!

i don't really know what to say! I enjoyed this, love the romance and the willing to die for each other part (i'm a sucker for superheroes saying that) and i'm glad i finally read a midnighter and apollo comic after so many years of reading about them on wiki pages

Content Warning for lots of gore and violence.

I really enjoyed this. I wasn't expecting too much but didn't see the twists coming. I really liked the art style and the story was easy to follow, making it all the more enjoyable.
