Cherubs! Paradise Lost is afantasygraphic novel by British artistBryan Talbot, who wrote the script and provided the layouts, with the finished art byMark Stafford.[1][2] The first book, or 'cantica', was published byDesperado Publishing in November 2007.

In "Cantica I: Paradise lost," on the trail of the murdering archangel Abaddon, the Cherubs get stuck in the mind-numbing mediocrity ofLimbo - but not for long. They escape and make it toNew York City, where, looking for signs and portents, they foil a mugging and are befriended by Mary, a sexy 'exotic dancer'. But she has a problem: her boss is Frankie Dracula, and his vampire minions are out to kill her!
In "Cantica II: Hell On Earth," Mary and the Cherubs are drawn into a battle with the massed forces of Hell whilst attempting to foil Abbadon's plans to instigate the apocalypse.
