Promethea, Vol. 4 by Mick Gray, Alan Moore, J.H. Williams III
3.0
Most of this book is spent watching Sophie and Barbara become more and more enlightened as they: identify a sigil as Hebrew! meet legendary magicians! get in touch with their emotions! have kinky sex! etc. Luckily, Sophie and Barbara eventually meet God and thus, end their quest. Their stupid, boring, intermidible quest.
Luckily, Sophie's return to earth also marks a return to plot. Though that she's met God and been assured of her purpose, some of the other Prometheas are less sanguine about her role. A battle and then a metaphysical court case ensues. Meanwhile, two (awesome) FBI agents try to track down the roots of Promethea, and a sociopath villain (the Doll, who should have died many trade paperbacks ago) makes yet more trouble.
