Explore the mythology of FIVE GHOSTS with a beautiful painted story from S.M. VIDAURRI (Jim Henson Storyteller: Witches, Iron: Or, The War After) featuring knights, demons, wizards, and the Dreamstone!
And in a special backup story, FRANK J. BARBIERE presents Fabian in one of the most exciting literary heists ever!
Overall, Five Ghosts: Special #1 is an issue worth picking up for exploration, a laugh, and to help show support a book that deserves to have reached this far to deserve a special. Read Full Review
It's a great read, and Vidaurri plays to his strength as the whole creative package here. Read Full Review
Special issues with more in-depth stories from an on-going series are a risky thing. This is not a book designed to pick up new readers, and it's only going to appeal to some of the current readers. I feel like this volume will appeal to even fewer than is usual, because each piece is severely lacking in something. I just can't recommend this for any but the hardest of die-hard fans.

Balancing these two down, I think that you do get a very solid 3/5 with a recommendation that the first story is A+ material and worth the purchase. The price at $3.99 is also worth it as you do get (at least) one top shelf story that is full length. Of course, if you have been reading Five Ghosts and know it for what it is, I think that Vidaurri's story cannot be passed up. It is quite good. Read Full Review
