In "Chapter 6: Alas, Poor Ghost," Matt Wagner crafts a haunting chapter of Mage with a creeping sense of dread as Lazlo the Grackleflint unleashes a gang of Red Caps on Kevin. When Kevin and Mirth uncover the truth that San is a ghost, the line between the living and the dead blurs—especially when the Umbra Sprite awakens a prisoner to fight back. With Matt Wagner handling writing, art, and coloring, and Sam Kieth on inks, this 1985 Comico issue delivers a moody, atmospheric tale where spectral secrets and sudden violence collide.
