Overall this book reminds me somewhat of the books that DC comics put out in the 1960s and 1970s like the "House of Mystery" and "The Witching Hours," especially the first two stories of this trade paperback. The stories in this book are not nearly as good as the best of the "Witching Hour," "House of Mystery," or "Ghosts," but they are entertaining. The good news is that that are not as wordy as the old ones.
The art various based on the story with the first story being my favorite with fun character designs and excellent coloring. If you can get this trade for a low price it is worth a read.
