8 1/2 Ghosts
Here’s another interesting comic from Alternative Comics. This one is about a young filmmaker who’s looking for the perfect place to shoot his “spooky” movie. He finds the perfect place, complete with ghosts who are friendly and willing to show themselves only on film (so as not to disrupt the cast, don’t you know), but things get a little bit out of hand when some angry poltergeists stop by. A great concept, and I know I’ve seen Rich’s art in other places, but it’s perfect for these silly ghosts. There’s also a vampire in here who’s about 20 feet tall, but I don’t want to give anything away. It’s $3.95, huge (in size anyway, the story isn’t any longer than the average comic book), and a good little story. What’s wrong with that? Here’s the website for Alternative Comics, you can get a copy there, if you like, or at your local comic store… ha! I’m just kidding. Your local comic store probably doesn’t even sell this, assuming that you even have a local comic store. But I digress…
