I expected this to be a fun romp with some light Catholic set dressing, like any of a hundred horror movies I could name. And I DID have a lot of fun with it, to be clear, but also this made me experience an Emotion about religion and faith in a way that I haven't in literal years. Possibly I am overtired and wrung out from a long week but this comic gets extra points for making me Feel A Feeling.

Recommended to anyone who has ever watched Supernatural and/or Shadowhunters and went "wouldn't it be great if this was, like, good".
