When you claim that ghosts are why your big score went bust, people tend to look at you as a little cray-cray. But in Jackson's case, it attracted the attention of a paranormal activity buff and the criminal was busted out of jail, and promised his freedom if he would help the ghost hunter catch a ghost. That job didn't go so well either, but it allowed Winters the opportunity to fake his own death and start anew.
Despite being a free man, Jackson Winters has a lot of targets on his back. He has a chance to finally get a couple of those targets removed when he agrees to go into the Mexican jungle to rescue the granddaughter of the owner of the very casino he tried to rob. This new deal will take Jackson to an abandoned temple where he discovers a virtual paradise of babes, sex, and vice.
But this is Ghosted and in this horror series from Image, nothing is as it seems.
I liked volume one very much. But I think this volume was even better. This story was pretty cut and dry as opposed to the first storyline that involved a series of double and triple-crosses that left me scratching my head. Plus, there are plenty of great twists and turns that builds on the latter volume without making it a rehash of the haunted house adventure Jackson partakes in to win his freedom. Plus, we finally learn what happened in the infamous casino heist that left Jackson ghosted.
The art by Davide Gianfelice also got better in this volume. I loved how the variety of spirits Jackson encounters each have their own different look and appearance. It was almost like series creator Joshua Williamson had a different artist draw each ghoulish creature. It gave variety and texture to a thrilling story of pain, redemption, and of course, GHOSTS...
Worth Consuming
