The opening pages start out with a bang. When the mental institution is being burnt down, Ferreyra depicts the chaos as the nurses are running around and screaming for their lives. In the midst of the destruction, some of the mental patients are actually enjoying the fire. In the second half of the story, Tobin has to go through a lot of exposition. Through medium and wide shots, Ferreyra keeps the panels engaging as the police officer and Declan's nurse are having a regular conversation. Always active, these characters are constantly moving around in a single location. It is quite impressive how Ferreyra can make these day-to-day situations look interesting, even though there is no scare or action taking place.

Ferreyra does a great job illustrating Jack's nightmarish powers. When Jack enters the mind of his victim, he tortures them with their internal fears. With immense glee, Jack conjures up monsters with elongated fingers and half a mouth. These are eerie images that will definitely stick in your mind after you have finished reading.

If you are looking for horror comedy, "Creepy" #10 is a near perfect anthology issue. Each short tale is filled with lots of enjoyable campy humor and finishes off with a twisted ending. After reading a few of these shorts, you will want to re-visit H.P. Lovecraft's work, and what better time than Halloween month.

With tons of horror and wicked humor, "Creepy " #12 has all that for readers and so much more. The "Creepy" anthology series always has such great storytellers to match with its wonderful black and white artwork.

While being quite accessible to newcomers, Criminal Macabre/30 Days of Night: Final Night #1 also establishes how the stakes are personal to longtime readers. Eben and his army of nasty vampires from "30 Days of Night" fit seamlessly into the "Criminal Macabre" world. Fans of both series are really going to enjoy watching them clash.

"Crossed: Badlands" #50 takes its time to scar your mind. With "Crossed" in the right hands, Ennis and Zanier are going to deliver the gratuitous goods in unexpected ways.

Just like he did with "The Conqueror Worm," Richard Corben delivers another truly terrifying interpretation of Poe's works. Readers will definitely be impressed by what Corben has artistically achieved in his faithful adaptation of "Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher."

In "Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher" #2, writer/artist Richard Corben delivers another truly terrifying adaptation. I can't wait to see which of Poe's macabre tales Corben does next. I'm gunning for "Murders In The Rue Morgue".

With a strong sense of tragic irony and an exaggerated flair for the dramatic, Richard Corben delivers a truly terrifying interpretation of Edgar Allen Poe's "The Conqueror Worm." By staying true to the source material, Corben brings a sense off surrealism to Poe's work. Admirers of Poe cannot deny how Corben's artistic style provides a memorable picture of the literary genius like no other.

EI8HT #2 is a must-read sci-fi mystery/thriller with phenomenal artwork. I cannot wait to see what happens in the next issue.

Writer Christopher Sebela delivers a fine sense of rhythm and pacing for dialogue. The zany characters are energetic with their nonstop chatter. The dark humor hits its punchline after Snake responds with a spot-on one-liner. A man of few words, Snake has the best lines in the comic, thanks to Sebela. The dialogue still feels like something Kurt Russell would say in character.

I look forward to seeing how the "Forever Evil" crossover continues, especially in "Arkham War" and "Justice League Dark."

Gianfelice makes great use of the jungle setting throughout the narrative. In a wide shot, Gianfelice illustrates the ancient temple with thousands of stone steps. If you look carefully, the steps form into the shape of a hand. The walls and narrow tunnels are lit by flickering candles. The Teacher's throne is made up of bones and skulls, the remains of humans who have been eaten by giant snakes.Readers should definitely be on the lookout for "Ghosted" #8. With its surprising cliffhanger, I can't wait to see what happens next.

From a variety of writers and artists, each twisted tale in "Ghosts" #1 gets better and better. Each ghost story encourages the reader to keep going, never giving them a chance to put the comic down. A great step in quality and quantity, there's lots of great stuff in here.

"Grim Leaper" #1 is a different kind of romantic comedy where people end up being decapitated. Lou Collins hasn't made the most out of life, even after cheating death thirteen times. Lou has no intention of living a meaningful life until he meets Ella. Now that he has a reason to stay alive, death is always lurking around the corner.

I am interested in seeing what writers Jeff Lemire, Ray Fawkes, and artist Renato Guedes will do with "Constantine" #1.

I became a fan after reading Christopher Monfettes eloquent and stylish dialogue in the first issue. Like many, I was caught by surprise when Pinhead defeated Kirsty and tricked her into taking his place in Hell. I kept on reading when Harry D Amour was brought into the mix. Though this is the last issue of the Hellraiser series, this is not the end of Pinhead and Kirsty Cotton. Barker still has some sights to show you, which is reason enough to be excited about The Dark Watch in 2013.
