Highly psychedelic issue where the art reaches a new peak while continuing to use said artwork to tell the emotions/trauma of the 3 main characters
Kind of underwhelmed the direction it went after Issue #3. So Myrick kills Donny's guys, and it seems that the Made men are in deep ass trouble, but then Myrick is just socked out the story? What? This FBI agent, I want her to be important, but the way Williams/Masters is taking her deflated the stakes of this issue. Though there are some saving graces of this book. This undead/supernatural element played with in this series and how it affects our protagonists is done with fine technique. The visuals are the highlight here. Everything from the art style, the inks with contrast between dark and light topped with some well done chromatic colors makes Old Haunts have some amazing panels. Though not entirely satisfied with this book.
