Vertigo's Halloween Special

THE HOUSE OF MYSTERY HALLOWEEN ANNUAL.

I should have known better.

This is the first traditionally shaped comic book I've purchased in years, and it's a compendium of advertizey shorts strung together by an advertizey frame. So in the end I've been pitched a bunch of stories to what might be great series, but the individual stories are underdeveloped and, frankly, not capable of selling me anything.

Which shouldn't surprise me at all.

But it looked cool and seemed cool and I'm trying to get Mike Allred and Amy Reeder Hadley to work with me on a project so I gave it a shot.

Whoops.

Shoulda just bought a copy of Madame Xanadu and I, Zombie. Lesson Learned.
