Ghost #8

Dark Horse's Ghost settles confidently into her element on this 1995 issue, with H. M. Baker's cover depicting the white-clad, hooded heroine seated on a stone throne before a ivy-covered gate bearing the inscription "Sanctum Sanctorum" — pistol in hand, expression cool and composed. The atmosphere blends gothic mystery with quiet menace, suggesting a character very much in command of her surroundings. With Eric Luke writing and George Dove on interior art, this mid-series chapter promises the moody, stylish storytelling that made Ghost one of Dark Horse's more compelling offerings of the era.
