Wraith with Sickle (1984)

Heheh, I love Wraith with Sickle. There is something kind of delightful about the straightforward naming convention of these books. I also love that the wraith is mostly invisible except for his power drain hand.

The art in these books must have been a real pain in the butt, but mostly I think it comes off well. There is something real unnerving about the images in which the blade comes right to the front edge of the composition. Arne Starr is the guy behind the illustrations. Not only is he an artist, but he’s an actor, too, specializing in playing sketch artists. He was on 21 episodes of Mad Men, apparently!
