"An angel and devil walk into a bar-- so begins the Shadowpact's newest adventure into the strange and mystical underbelly of the DC Universe. Right after Blue Devil quits, his replacement-- the angel Zauriel-- gets caught in the middle of the team's toughest challenge yet. Doctor Gotham holds the city of Chicago hostage. His demands are simple: only the complete destruction of the Shadowpact. Even with the help of Zatanna and the Justice League, can the Shadowpact prevent the evil sorcerer from destroying the entire planet? And if anyone survives that, there's still the legal matter of who owns the Blue Devil's soul, a trip to the Nightshade Dimension, and hordes of zombies to enjoy. Good thing Detective Chimp just ordered another round" -- p. [4] of cover.
