DC Infinite Halloween Special (2007) #1

So this begins my 2021 Halloween Special Marathon. I'm reading each and every DC Halloween Special released and giving them a short review.

These are all Anthology works so quality varies heavily from story to story. Anthology Horror is quintessentially Halloween to me so I'm well used to the format. I'll just be pointing out the best stories here, the stories are SHORT so if you don't like one it'll soon be over.

Kcirt ro Taert - This short starring Zatanna is written by the legendary Paul Dini and drawn by a personal favorite of mine, Dustin Nguyen. I love Zatanna stories and this one was a bit more morbid than usual so obviously I loved it. Paul Dini excels in short stories.

Red Rain: Blood Lust - Regardless of public opinion, I LOVE Kelley Jones' artwork. He's one of my all time favorites and this story is no exception. The writing is fine but god is the gothic atmosphere just beautiful. The red sky and endless stone architecture of this Gotham speaks to me.

Strange Cargo - This one was my personal favorite of the bunch. I'm a sucker for weird Superman stories so one featuring Zombies was right up my alley. Accompanying Steve Niles' writing was Dean Ormston in a rare painted style. Really beautiful nonetheless.
