- Title: Adventureman #9
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Matt Fraction
- Artist: Terry Dodson
Teaming up with Crossjaw, the ghost-hunting super cowboy, the bizarre adventures of single-mother turned adventurer Claire Connell continue. In the latest issue, the pair journey into the old abandoned subway tunnels looking for the Ghost Station and answers to the the Ghost Gang’s return to New York City.
I’ll admit to not giving this comic as much attention as it probably deserves and feeling a bit lost, not unlike Claire and Crossjaw wandering through the underground tunnels, after taking a break from this story after the introductory first issue. That said, I still enjoyed the mix of humor and creepy weirdness here involving a gang of ghosts returning to the living and a woman taking on powers of a pulp hero being the only thing standing in their way. I’m curious to see the adventure continue.
