Wow! What a great series of horror / supernatural comics. 'Ghost' runs to 11 issues, of which this one is the last available on this site. All have been wonderfully scanned and then uploaded by 'Cimmerian 32'. I can't thank you enough for this share. The artwork is particularly good, in fact as good as it gets in the majority of the stories. Guaranteed reading pleasure! |

I read the "Werewolf Hunter" story several times and I still can't make sense of it. |

Very richly detailed cover on this one. I tend to prefer the "monster" stories as opposed to the ghost ones. "Lords of the Upper Air" did it for me this time.
If someone understands just why the "Werewolf Hunter" is about a supernatural ship in a bottle and not about hunting werewolves please clue the rest of us in....because I just don't get it ! |

"Werewolf Hunter" is a reprint from a long-running series that appeared in Fiction House's Ranger comics. Professor Broussard certainly went after plenty of werewolves, but over time the series spread out into general weird/horror stories. Not as misleading a title as FH's "Weird Stories of the Supernatural," which was a non-supernatural time travel series. |

"Dr. Drew" ran originally in RANGERS COMICS # 47 - #60.
We believe that only the “Dr. Drew” stories in RANGERS COMICS #57 - #60 are by Grandenetti.
This is probably not, although it is signed by Grandenetti. |
