Too gorey for me, I can never tell until it gets too much, which is unfortunate. Plot was interesting though.

I too would literally go to hell to save my gay superhero boyfriend.

And that's the plot and loved it. Midnighter and Apollo need more love from mainstream audience and I will die on this hill for it.

Heard this was basically AU superbat. It's not, and it doesn't do anything DC hasn't already done in hell, but it's still very satisfying to see a masc gay power couple cutting through every demon below to reach each other. There's a spot of actual interest to be had in how they come to terms with and justify killing as part of their heroics too, in contrast with Supes and the Bat's sacred no-kill rule.
