Good tale ...So, I guess, Happy Halloween again? :)<br /><br />Good tale -- it's a twist on the regular fake medium/real spirits, but has enough originality in it to raise it above the crowd. The art is great, but a little static in places. The end demon has a interesting visage!<br /><br />Let's talk about that cover. It's a beautiful piece of framing, the door behind Cain (that's Cain, right, I always got them mixed up!), framing Cain, and then framing the jack o latern, and then framed by the kids (and the piece of architecture on the left.) And the lighting! Great work.Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-18887884123273167152016-11-06T10:21:21.594-06:002016-11-06T10:21:21.594-06:00In the first panel, it's interesting how Ruben...In the first panel, it's interesting how Rubeny draws Gaston as a buff super-devil, like he wasn't able to break out of his DC box.<br />Heavy tale, man.

I also love that dated 70's lingo Harold Thatcher uses.<br />I do find the ending to be rather amusing in regards that the "real" devil is merely an agent of Hell himself and not actually Satan. However, he is real enough to give these two jokers what they deserve.Glowwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01621527075382017998noreply@blogger.com
