Tony Parker - Ghost - Satan Prayer (Papa Emeritus V) Mystery Sketch

For the 13th Comic Art Live I mixed it up a bit and decided to get a commission based on songs by some of my favorite bands. The list that Tony received had songs by: The MiSfits, Ghost, Avatar, Marilyn Manson, Nekrogobliokn, Behemoth & Danzig. Tony went with Ghost and from the list of Witch Image, Stand by Him and Satan Prayer, he went with Satan Prayer. 

Satan Prayer is one of the catchiest song on Ghost's first album "Opus Eponymous" which was fronted by Papa Emeritus I. Papa I was eventually murdered (along with Papa II & Papa III) just prior to the release of Prequelle which was fronted by Cardinal Copia. For this awesome commission Tony chose the most recent frontman, Papa Emeritus V Perpetua as the subject. After the Prequelle tour, Cardinal Copia was promoted to Papa Emeritus IV in Mexico when Papa Nihil died on stage during Miasma. Papa IV was moved to the position of Frater Imperator when his twin brother Papa Emeritus V took over as the lead singer.

Unfortunately Ghost did not allow use of cell phones during their most recent tour, so I was unable to record Perpetua singing Satan Prayer, which was one of the rotating songs on tour.

Here is a clip of Satan Prayer that I filmed in Portland in 2019. Cardinal Copia was the lead singer on this tour.
