Haunt #1

cheddarhead4's Haunt #1 review

Fantastic story. My favorite comic currently in print

I just recently picked up haunt out of my appreciation for Kirkman's work on Walking Dead. After reading the first issue, i went out and got the next six issues and read them that day. The story does something really original that I've never seen before and creates characters that, while being familiar archetypes, are thrown into different situations and forced into different roles than those archetypes have been in before.  
 
I've never read Spawn, so i can't comment on the comparison's with that. On spiderman: despite the covers, Haunt is the farthest from  Spiderman you'll find. Sure he shoots webbish stuff, but when you seem him in all his glory, he is much more comparable to the Darkness.
 
Haunt is absolutely incredible, and the first issue really hooks you into an amazing story.

Its still obvious wh...
