The
Sixsmiths are a family of suburban Satanists who've fallen prey to the global
recession. Now their life is in turmoil: the father Ralf needs to find a new
job; the twins, Cain and Lilith, need to survive the horrors of the public
school system; and wife Annie needs to keep them all sane and under budget.
Meanwhile, their estranged elder daughter Jezabelle is having her own crisis of
faith. Will the Devil rise to smite their enemies, or will he damn them with
hellfire, wrath and underwater mortgage payment? Collects Volume 1, issues 1-4.
"This
is a great book and the creators should be proud of themselves. I believe it is
one of the breakthrough graphic novels coming from a new age of Australian
comics." -
Black Mermaid Productions.
"...a
fun read that doesn't take itself too seriously and is trying to show how no
matter what religion we happen to follow, we all pretty much the same
underneath." -
Ain't it Cool News.
The
Sixsmiths are a family of suburban Satanists recovering from the global
recession. Their eldest daughter, Jezabelle, has returned to the fold with a
frightening amount of zeal. Meanwhile, recently converted Dennis O'Dowell finds
that adopting a new faith has not made him as cool as he had hoped. But when
the church burns down the whole community is embroiled in a crisis. What hidden
enemy has brought them this low? Or is the Dark Lord punishing them for their
weakness? Collects Volume 2, Issues 1-3.
"There's
been a lot written about the banality of evil. And evil doesn't get much more
banal than the Sixsmiths, a hardworking, loving middle class family who happen
to worship the Dark Lord. Hilarious, profane, and even moving, the Sixsmiths is
a book you should be reading. Or Lucifer will reap your soul." - Justin Jordan (The
Strange Talent of Luther Strode, Spread).
