Graphic Novel Reviews: Un/Sacred Volume 1

Meet Angelina and Damiano. One is a chaste, oblivious, chesty bombshell-type of an angel. The other is a metal music singing, fire loving, porn watching, stereotypical horny devil. A chance meeting as little kids comforting each other when their parent’s grocery store carts collide set these two on a destiny to be together forever.

In a world of only angels and devils, this couple doesn’t ever seem like they would work out well together, but when you blend in all the one liners and blatantly obvious sex and crude jokes, the laughs themselves keep the story progressing. Though the story falls easily into a routine of one page setup and punchline, almost as if it was a newspaper strip or web comic, the irony of the situations that are uncovered, will cause laughter to erupt from deep down inside you.

Mirka Andolfo (UNNATURAL, MERCY) takes a very basic premise, runs it through a religious spin, a raunchy sense of humor, and lets it all fly over a bed of adults only content and out comes UnSacred Volume 1. Will there be a Volume 2? If so, it will probably need to have new characters…

18 and up ONLY.
