So, is it going to be a thing with Ghosted that each issue opens with a shocking, incredibly tasteless (and pretty much unnecessary) panel? As we’re only two issues in, it’s hard to tell, but it’s weird that we’re two-for-two so far.

The ghost heist is almost out of the planning phase, with team leader Winters determined to ensure that they’re in and out with their supernatural prey before the sun goes down. So far, so good right? Only the local Sheriff has been sniffing around, and the team’s sceptic seems destined to find out the hard way that ghosts are very real…

Though overall I thought the first issue of Ghosted was pretty enjoyable, there were a few things that I struggled with.  One thing was that appallingly misjudged opening scene, but another was the fact that Jackson Winters, our protagonist, was just so damn unlikeable. The latter doesn’t change here, but he’s balanced against a much more prominent and interesting supporting cast here, which makes him being such an asshole quite amusing.

The artwork is fantastic too, with some superb work on the spookier stuff (and nonchalant handling of gore at the outset too).

With a killer twist, it seems the brutal prison breakout wasn’t a one-off act of indiscriminate violence by a certain character, and this issue in general does make me look forward to reading more; something I was on the fence about after finishing the first issue.
