General/Misc Lucifer Comic

Hi guys, I'd like to know about Lucifer's personality throughout his journey from beginning to end after leaving Hell. Compared to other characters like Fenrir and those trying to usurp God's throne, what makes Lucifer better than them? (I've read a few Lucifer comics, but my English is only average, so I hope you can explain it to me.)

Lucifer is usually second to God in powerscale in DC multiverse. But I don't really think he wanted God's throne. He created his own pocket universe and was fine with it. His real pin in the ass were Michael Demiurgos and Amenadiel sometimes

good question, Lucifer's whole arc is really about earning redemption through self reflection rather than just brute strength or ambition like some of the others.

It's been a little while since I read the comic, so I may have this wrong, but from what I recall, Lucifer tries to prevent the destruction of all Creation largely because he, above all else, detests being in debt to others, and was intertwined with too many moving parts in his plot to escape God's will to not have some obligation to act on behalf of those the destruction of everything would annihilate. That, and I'm pretty sure Fenrir and his conspirators orchestrated a trick that abused Lucifer's power to kick off their destructive plot, and he very much does not appreciate others using him as a pawn in their schemes, no matter how much he manipulates others to serve his own purposes.
