Churches burning. Hundreds of them. Flames ripping through cavernous interiors, tearing holes through stained glass, felling steeples, bell towers, and domes. The second complete volume of the Hell's Gates series follows the 2018 original and its supplement editions; like its predecessors, this pulp novel of images delves into the realms of iconography, typology, and the implications and democracy of images. But where earlier editions used strategic Google Images searches for burning churches the world over, in Retribution Coghlan focuses his gaze on a particular medium and place: TV news screen-captures and specific contexts of destruction.
