Hello out there.
Welcome to another post. This time around I like to say hello and thanks for reading this newletter. Since this is the first post of the new year, I would like to express that this past year have been a lot of twists and turns for me and all that.
This time, I would like to review a book I’ve brought recently:
Ghost Machine #1
To those unknown to this, Ghost Machine is a creative collective of comic book creators headed by former DC Comics writer and film and TV screewriter/producer Geoff Johns as he brings writers and artists together to create what is basically a preview of books that are centered around four distant and different worlds in which these characters featured here and those yet to be introduced in their book to come.
Ghost Machine is a new imprint who owns their books and own their own properties and through this new publishing relationship with Image Comics, this imprint has great enough ideas to be a force to be reckon with this year. The first story is set of the universe of The Undead, a universe that’s centered around the character Geiger, introduced in his mini-series last year and features the character Simon Pure, a british soldier who’s an immortal with a attitude problem who has an upcoming book in Redcoat.
The second story features characters from the upcoming Rook:Exodus which featuring a group called Wardens, a group of men and women in an apokoliktic world where they wear specialized helmets that control animal species.
The third story features Family Oddities, the third world which features a family who are from the future have joined the witness protection program of this family’s future timeline and are living in our present day timeline and insanity happens. It also features two teenagers, a boy whose an angel and a girl who is the devil that were born and raised repectably by opposite families.
The fourth world which features a story by Johns and drawn by Ivan Reis, known fir his recent history with DC Comics on Green Lathern, and Superman among others works untitled Hyde Street, featuring a set of characters with supernatural and horror related tendencies.
I found this book to be a great introduction to these characters and the worlds each are in, and I'm ready to see where these characters are going to do in their prospective worlds.
Pick this up where comics are sold.
That's all for now. See you all soon with another post.
