About the series
In this 2013 Image Comics miniseries, writer Frank J. Barbiere and artist Chris Mooneyham introduce a treasure hunter whose encounters with supernatural artifacts grant him the abilities of five legendary literary ghosts—each a distinct, spectral power. Over three issues, the story blends pulp adventure with dark fantasy, as the protagonist navigates a world of occult relics and dangerous rivals. Five Ghosts stands out for Mooneyham's moody, expressive art and Barbiere's tight, atmospheric storytelling, offering a compact, evocative take on classic ghost-story tropes.
