The basic premise of Mona Lisa Darkening

[snarp]

is that there’s another Hell that is way worse than regular Hell and is called “NetherHell.”

…

I’m really trying hard here, but I think the book just beat me. I’d gotten over my cold, but it relapsed; and all my downloads keep aborting themselves; the milk has all curdled; and the sun set an hour earlier than usual, with a heavy sense of finality. This is what it’s like when the book wins.

Anyway, this concept has previously appeared pretty much verbatim in Penny Arcade.
