The fourth book in the bestselling RECKLESS series is here! Crime noir masters ED BRUBAKER & SEAN PHILLIPS present yet another original graphic novel starring troublemaker-for-hire Ethan Reckless.
It's the winter of 1989 and Ethan is out of town, so this time, Anna has to tackle the job on her own. When a movie scream queen asks her to prove the mansion she's renovating isn't haunted, Anna will stumble into the decades-long mystery of one of Hollywood's most infamous murder houses... a place with many dark secrets - some of which might just kill her. Another hit from the award-winning creators of PULP, MY HEROES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN JUN more
It's no surprise that RECKLESS continues to be a great series. It would be a surprise if this creative team ever came out with anything less than excellent. But a RECKLESS book that focuses almost exclusively on Ethan's assistant, Anna? It's a great premise with a flawless execution. Read Full Review
The Ghost in You is an exceptionally thrilling crime graphic novel, and in an already gripping series of OGNs, feels like something even more special. It feels like an understatement at this point to recommend The Ghost in You, as everyone should already be reading the series, but it does well to reiterate that the alchemy of Brubaker and the Phillips are on full display in this volume, and it should not be missed. In breaking from the typical narrative format from the previous installments, the creative burrows into Anna and her past and gives a texture to the world and characters theyve felt. That texture and weight sink in, and much like the ghosts that Anna is dealing with, linger with you the further you get away from this book. Read Full Review
Sean Phillips, Jacob Phillips, and Ed Brubaker continue their excellent mystery/neo-noir graphic novel series with a refreshing shift in protagonist and tone. Read Full Review
Another phenomenal piece of work from the incomparable team of Brubaker, Phillips and Phillips. The usual magnetic cover art, shadowy interiors and a structural narrative that keeps the reader consistently curious and engaged.
I do think the 2nd and 3rd still reign supreme but, that was still fantastic. While the second and third ones relied on elaborate endings in a way, this provided realism and a good focus on Anna.
