Lucifer in
The Sandman #22 when talking to
Cain in Hell, noting "no greater percentage of them turned up
here than of any other religion". • The sect is included as a dualist heresy in the computer game
Crusader Kings 3. • The Cainites are featured as antagonists in the Spanish
HBO series
30 Coins. • In
