And since that's always been a cult film, it wouldn't be surprising.

I guess we all tend from time to time to reminisce and remember our youth better than we really lived it.)<br /><br />Anyway, getting back to the comic, Charlton could be a real treat in the horror department, in a B movie kind of way. <br />This tale is similar to Dr. Drew stories you have posted previously, an occult investigator called in to right some magical wrong, stop evil from triumphing, etc. <br /><br />I can't wait to see part two, since I can't recall the details from this comic so long ago (don't worry. no spoiler alerts from me.)JMR777https://www.blogger.com/profile/03538238702295526065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-65858188343909179202014-03-20T13:17:19.667-05:002014-03-20T13:17:19.667-05:00I can't say much for the story until I see par...I can't say much for the story until I see part 2, but the art is great. Wispy, full of heavy blacks, it's spooky and moody, and some nice creatures and staging.<br /><br />It's a bit loose in places, though.<br /><br />One interesting art thing -- Sutton keeps a lot of panels either without straight lines or with really stretched perspective. A bit of masterwork there for making atmospheric panels.

Dig the super seventies dynamo cover. I've got guests this week, so I'll wait to read the whole story when both halves are posted. Looks great though!Mr. Cavinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634994342702518448noreply@blogger.com
