Fox television’s Lucifer is based on the work of two important comic book series, Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman (1989-1996) and Mike Carey’s Lucifer (2000-2006). The comics are in dialogue with earlier versions of Lucifer especially that of John Milton, presented in Paradise Lost (1667) and other common ideas about Satan as a liar, purchaser of souls, and the like. They develop weird and mythologically rich worlds, speculate about free-will and predestination, and present Lucifer as a complex and interesting character. The television show, sadly, does little of this. It is, rather, a typical police procedural. Interestingly, where one might expect protests about the TV show from religious groups, the response has been muted. This may be because the occult has become normalized in the popular culture of the United States, or because American’s religious attitudes are shifting, or both. Studying the responses to the TV show in the US and Cuba would be an interesting test case to explore how each culture conceptualizes Lucifer
