‘Teenage Satan’ Webcomic is the Cutest Kind of Heresy [Video]

Beyond its deliciously blasphemous premise -- which includes the young devil playing in a rock band and flunking out of mama Jezebel's homeskool - Teenage Satan is packaged in the kind of retro cartoonist style that we can't get enough of. It's no surprise, then, that the creators of this beautiful book have deep connections to that school of art. Stephanie Buscema, who's contributed to Girl Comics, among other titles, is the granddaughter of legendary Marvel Comics artist John Buscema. Marsha Cooke and Candis Cooke are the wife and niece, respectively, of mid-century revivalist Darwyn Cooke, and Teenage Satan marks their comic book debuts.

The artwork alone is reason enough to check out Teenage Satan when it drops in September, but as you can see from the promotional materials below -- which includes the single best comic book video trailer we've ever seen -- the story and characters cooked up by Buscema and the Cookes looks unusually fun. You can keep track of Teenage Satan at the project's website.
