HAUNT
Posted: Sat Apr 24, 2010 1:28 pmVeep had a topic on this a while ago, but I'm not even sure that still exists so I just make this new one.
Well if you're wondering what HAUNT is, it's a comic series created by Todd McFarlane (Spider-Man, SPAWN) and Robert Kirkman (Walking Dead, MARVEL Zombies). Apparently it's currently image's best selling comic series ever and outsells Spawn I think HAUNT #1 even outsold Spawn #1.
It's pretty awesome, kinda like Venom just with a ghost instead of an alien
So why am I restarting this topic? Well we're six issues in and I finally got my TPB and issue 6,both should still be available so you can still grab them and be up-to-date with the series, and I just wanted to well discuss the stuff that happened in it.
Well I just absolutely love this series, the origin story is now complete (I think, but there is supposed to be more material for it coming up) I never noticed the first time I read it but if you look at the panel in #1 where Kurt finds the people that have been experimented on, you can see the woman that later "explains" Kurt's and Daniel's situation as being a "Haunt", drawing the let's call it "Haunt symbol" or "Soul Reaver spirit world life-bar rip-off" - which ever you prefer - on the cell wall.
I love how twisted the character's situation is, the Haunt (totally not a symbiont) costume being black and white, representing Yng and Yung while Daniel, the immoral Priest represents Yin the black and thus negative aspect while the Mercenary with morals Kurt represents Yang the white and thus positive side.
This is further proven by their Speech bubbles while in costume.
Any one have a theory on how the series might continue?
