HAUNT #7


Greg Capullo is the new artist now on this book, but it sure looks a lot like Todd McFarlane is drawing it. That's a good thing, as McFarlane was the greatest comic book artist of all time. The problem is that McFarlane is only inking this book but you can tell that he's itching to draw it. He goes completely overboard with the inks. How many fucking lines does a person need on their face? As for the story, this is more a bridge of an issue between arcs than anything substantial. The dead guy's wife finds out that he was a secret super spy. And the villain, after surgery, looks a little deformed. That's it. If the art wasn't so awesome I probably would care that not much happens. This book is a mix of Spider-man and Spawn, and not really as good or as intriguing as either. It looks great and is both stupid and simple. If a few downright awesome storylines don't show up soon, this book will become the afterthought most already believe it to be. **1/2
