FIRST NIGHT, FIRST NIGHTMARES. After a bumpy landing, the expedition splits up to explore Isla Lodo-"the most haunted place on earth." While an away team sets out for the other side of the island, Matt Park and Callum Shah take their first risky steps into the ominous ruin of Rasmussen Manor.
Mutti crafts some beautifully detailed art throughout the issue. The art does a brilliant job of capturing the ethereal nature of the story as well as its haunting elements. Read Full Review
The clever mixing of environmental and supernatural horror should be fun to explore in future issues of the series, but it will remain to be seen whether or not the series can get enough distance from the central ensemble to get a good look at the world that theyre exploring. The ensemble of characters IS interesting in places, but it lacks the kind of compelling dynamic that would serve the center of the series alone without something more being added in. As the central conflict begins to set in at the end of the issue, there DOES appear to be a chance that the plot will begin to balance out. Read Full Review
Callum Shah's expedition seems to be well-planned, but then unexpected things start happening. Read Full Review
Much like its debut issue, Haunt You to the End #2 provides a perfectly functional ghost story, but still lacks the sort of hook that will draw readers into whatever future frights it may have planned. Read Full Review
It's serviceable. I feel like we are either on the cusp of it ramping up, or maybe it's just spinning its wheels. I'm interested to come back, but I'm hoping issue 3 provides that spark.
THis is mid-teir for me at this point. We got a pure set up in the first issue that was a mix between Jurrasic Park and Amityville Horror and we don't get much more in this issue. It feels like a very slow burn. Let's speed things up a bit. Let's get some interesting hitory of the house. What evil lurks within. Are they stuck there? etc.
