Lucifer from the Lucifer series is literally just IM1 era tony stark with a new gimmick

arrogant, flashy, quippy, flirty, cynical, daddy issues, and a completely uncomplicated heart of gold for the benefit of palatable procedural TV

i get that it's a character type people like but I fucking hate that people think of him as the "good" version of writing Lucifer. my kingdom for an adaptation that had even a trace of the tone of Mike Carey's comic, even if the actual plot is unfilmable
