Monsters and mystery!? We’re in! Let’s take a look at the sneak peek below.
Read on for some thoughts from Ghosts Halloween Special creators.
“It’s tough to convey how excited I am about this book,” said Monster Forge’s Shannon Eric Denton. “Huge thanks to David, Rodney, Chynna, Cullen and Vamp for lending us their creations (and themselves in the case of Vamp and David). David Hartman has done some truly stellar work and it’ll be clear to everyone soon as to why Rob Zombie, Trick Or Treat Studios and so many Hollywood productions seek to collaborate with him! Halloween is the favorite time of year for all of us, so it’s been an absolute joy to co-create something specifically for the holiday with friends!”
“It’s my favorite time of the year!” said Cullen Bunn. “Halloween season is this perfect mix of fun and horror. With gHosts, that’s exactly what we wanted to capture! We wanted a fun, spooky story worthy of the greatest (and quirkiest) late-night horror hosts!”
“We’re honored to be able to exclusively showcase gHosts by Monster Forge,” said Kevin Van Ness, Director of Community at GlobalComix. “It’s been an absolute joy working with and supporting creators on GlobalComix, and I’m thrilled to welcome the Monster Forge team to our growing creator community. This is what ‘Putting Creators First’ is all about.”
