The Earth has been saved. So why hasn't Vincent Price's ghost transitioned over to the other side? Obviously, the soul of the late horror actor hasn't completed its mission on Earth. And until that happens, Vincent and Elvira will have tons of fun playing detective!
When a starlet goes missing, this dynamic duo goes into action against a list of suspects. They'll get to the bottom of this case, even if it kills them. Hopefully it won't kill them... Maybe...
I had originally thought that this miniseries was 4 issues long. With the Egyptian threat against the world neutralized in the last issue, that conclusion made sense. But I am guessing that sales were robust enough for Dynamite Entertainment that the story got extended and a 5th issue was ordered. It's the only thing that makes sense here as this issue has a completely different tone and flow.
In all honesty, I would have preferred this mini getting extended by 2 or 3 issues. Just 1 issue involving Elvira and Vincent Price as a sort of paranormal investigators upsets the whole balance of the series. If I had purchased this story as a trade and not a set of 5 floppies, I probably would have rated that book lower because of the last minute detour. Something to think about in the future, Dynamite...
Worth Consuming!
Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.
