FX #2

Three teens scramble in wide-eyed alarm across a blood-red, rubble-strewn ground while massive shadowy hands loom ominously from the darkness behind them — the cover tagline "Beware the Power of the Poltergeist" says everything you need to know about the threat they're facing. Written by Wayne Osborne with art by John Byrne, FX #2 from IDW channels classic supernatural adventure with an energetic, clean-lined style that feels both contemporary and timeless for 2008. If you enjoy stories where ordinary kids get thrown into very extraordinary danger, this one looks like a genuinely fun ride.
