The character ‘Lucifer’ was created by Neil Gaiman, Mike Dringenberg and Sam Keith, which premiered in ‘The Sandman’ in 1989. The comic follows ‘Lucifer’ as he abandons his throne for the “shinning insanity” of LA. There he befriends a pop star, who is murdered in a drive by, in front of Lux, the night club that he owns. The murder stirs something in him and he vows to punish the people responsible. The detective assigned to the case, Chloe Dancer (Lauren German), is intrigued by Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and his ability to get the truth out of people. Together they set out to solve the case.
