Mr. Karswell said...

Yes, there's no escape from the purple clothed evil from the Atlas realm of supernatural!

"Your stupid cloaks,stupid!stupid!" oh'well it's nice to have a recurring site gag(bad pun.)and this was a pretty nifty story dealing with metaphysics and NDE,one of Atlas's strengths was to experiment.

These old stories prove that comics were not only better back then in the art department but also in every aspect of the writing. With a few modern day exceptions there really is nothing going on in current comics as fun, original, and as innovative as this stuff. Kudos to Karswell!

Aww shucks... thanks.

Joe Sinnot's work is always amazing.
I love the story as well.
Page 4, panel 2 looks like the record cover for that old band, Blam, for their album, Ritz Hotel.

The silly title does an injustice to a great story, with great art. Would have been much better, though, if they'd left the ghosts out of it and just had Danny shoot himself in the graveyard out of terror and a desperate desire to escape.
