Jim Reaper: Week One

    (Silent Devil, 2006)
™ and ©2006 Dwigh L. MacPherson

Jim Reaper falls along the lines of Casper the Friendly Ghost and similar fare as making traditionally scary characters harmless and more palatable for younger audiences. This is totally in the same mold with a little more sophisticated humor than is usually present in children’s comics. Not that there is anything wrong with that. In fact, some of the images may actually be disturbing for younger children, even if they are drawn in such a cartoony way. Though there are a few longer stories in the book, Reaper tends to be a “gag-a-day” type comic. Overall, very funny and an ideal purchase for Halloween.
