He solves the LeMarchant puzzle and ends up facing Pinhead and various other cenobites. Marshal has found himself a new girlfriend, ironically she’s a superhero, she invites Marshal into a superhero group run by this winged angel called Seraph – allegedly from the heavenly realms, but as this is a Pat Mills script – all angels are actually lying bastards and he’s from Hell instead. Let’s get this straight, Marshal Law is not a hero, if you have read my previous review you will know this straight away – hes a regular guy (which passes a lot of people by when they read the series, but it’s one of Pat Mills’s signature motifs – the fact that the actions of ordinary, regular people matter that an superheroes are a pack of fascist bastards who project his concept of the immortal elite in society…but I won’t go in that in this review!) he’s the lad who wants to hurt those tossers who project themselves as goodness and light, but are actually a complete shower of evil fuckers. With Marshal Law, his initial run and story arc was so sublimely twisted it’s hard to know if this story – Pinhead vs Marshall Law is canon or not. Sometimes comic books are about ‘What if’ scenarios, crazy mash up stories which don’t really matter to the official canon of a character’s history Comic books aren’t always about the hard hitting social realities, although if you read my reviews you see that I do focus on that element quite a lot.
