Seriously awesome series. Would love to see this pick up some steam and get huge just because its a great book. Only have the first 2 compendiums but now that the 3rd is out I'll have to get it and the 4th when it begins, and then probably start getting singles with the second arc starting.

I think if this happens its only because

The brand may have taken over the position of favorite character from lying cat in only 5 pages. Hope he doesn't just get killed off quickly or ends up being a oneshot.

I don't quite get the comparison. Again I'm not saying its a bad book, I enjoyed 1-5, but the pulp action genre doesn't keep me interested month to month I guess. If it were stand alone issues maybe, but I'm just not feelin' the new story arc yet. Hopefully 8 will pique my interest in a way 7 didn't.

I somewhat enjoyed 6, but the 7th didn't really keep me interested to be honest. While I love the art the story just feels like a saturday morning cartoon in terms of structure and interest so far. There's nothing bad with pulpy action, but it just doesn't hold my interest long enough alone for me to even remember to check for this book month to month. I'll check out 8 to see if I get dragged back in but that might be the point I drop it.

Is there a list somewhere with all of the EoW prints? I may have to start hunting them down.

First issue was ok. For whatever reason the art style just feels like it doesn't quite fit the tone of the story to me but the story itself was decent. I'll keep reading the first couple of issues to see what direction the book takes but my pull list is getting close to reaching its limit so I can see myself dropping it unless it really takes off.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it's out in 2 weeks.

Ugh, October needs to get here faster. I need more five ghosts in my life.

just got the first two trades in today and read them both and this book is awesome. Serious hit on his hands going here. The art the story the mood the paperstock, everything is perfect. Can't give this book enough praise

Couldn't have described it any better! No cartoons on Saturday morning anymore. No Speed Buggy, Captain Caveman, Scooby Doo, Thundar the Barbarian, Hong Kong Phooey, etc, etc. Kids today get Good Morning America and informercials. As I've posted early on, whether intentional or not, the book carries on the aesthetic tradition of classic HB and Filmation Saturday morning shows like JONNY QUEST, SPACE GHOST, TARZAN, et al. I definitely detect an Alex Toth/Doug Wildey influence, down to the lettering. Just one of many nostalgic call backs that I enjoy. Very surprising to find out Frank and Chris are both young guys...all that stuff was from before they were born. For anyone looking for an ECCC, this 9.6 looks like it will be a very affordable option: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Five-Ghosts-1-ECCC-Variant-9-6-Blue-Label-VERY-HARD-TO-FIND-UNSIGNED-/221267392009?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3384907609 Agreed, I love this book. I try and describe it as Indiana Jones meets Johnny Quest because that's very much what it feels like to me.
