From Booklist

The cast of Moore's Boneyard, the ongoing adventures of a young man and his cemetery, already boasts a curvaceous vampire, a Frankenstein's monster, a werewolf, a gill girl (a la the creature from the Black Lagoon, only with a libido), a demon, a Halloween skeleton, gargoyles, and a talking raven-all jolly good sorts-but not, until halfway through this book's to-be-continued story, zombies. The latter are Romero-style stiffs, and they rather put a damper on Boneyard 's romantic sitcom proceedings, which here devolve from saving the graveyard from the devil, developers, and the IRS to the contention between Abbey (the vampire) and Nessie (the gill girl) for the heart-the affections, that is-of Michael Paris (the young owner of the cemetery). Moore's casual humor and ace draftsmanship continue to make Boneyard one of the comics world's most laid-back pleasures. If this book ends unusually dourly, surely its successor will blow away the gloom or at least, given the series' funereal setting, the aura of doom. Ray Olson
