 VICTORY #2 writer: David F. Walker artist: Brett Weldele covers: Dave Johnson (A), Bryan Hitch (B), Ariel Diaz (C), Carla Cohen (D), Cosplay / Alicia Marie and Rachel Hollon (E) FC | 32 pages | Horror | $3.99 | Teen+ In Stores July 19, 2023 As if being cursed with the ring of the demon Belial wasn’t bad enough for Victory, now she’s being chased by demons who want the very same ring that she can’t get rid of — making for unpleasant irony and lots of that brimstone smell. Speaking of smell, Victory is escorted to the P.U. (Purgatory Department — no, not that Purgatori) by her new colleagues, Lucy Fuhr, and Gaye Briel. There, she gets some face-to-face time with the big boss himself — the Devil! Courtesy of Dynamite Entertainment
