Overall a brilliant book that continues to respect the source material while modernizing it so that it doesn't change the things that make it what it is. Read Full Review

Space Ghost #6 is a compelling story because not only is there some good action sequences with the fight against Moltar, but there are also some deep moments of self-reflection from Jace and it deepens his characterization and the characterization of Space Ghost as well, going from low points to high points in their emotions and the connection they have with each other. This issue sure to be enjoyed by Space Ghost fans, but people who have been through difficult life circumstances may connect with Jace as well, and may even be moved by the ending. Stories that speak to deep life issues like this are really powerful and readers can definitely connect more with them. Read Full Review

'Space Ghost' launches another arc with a seemingly standalone issue that satisfyingly ties up some lingering issues amid another stellar confrontation with a formidable villain. 'Space Ghost' chugs along as a sure-fire thrill month after month.  Read Full Review

Space vampires are fairly derivative relative to the creativity Pepose has shown throughout his time on Space Ghost. But here in Space Ghost #6 they serve as an excellent vehicle to tell the best Jace and Jan story yet. Read Full Review

'Space Ghost' #6 provides plenty of good things to keep me interested in the series. The art by Jonathan Lau continues to be excellent. Andrew Dalhouse's colors especially for the villainous Moltar and his molten men are awesome. And Pepose's handling of Jace's and Space Ghost's emotional trauma is authentic and well done. But the heavy theme means 'Space Ghost' #6 doesn't share the same feeling that made the previous issues so much fun to read. Read Full Review

The idea of taking something which was essentially very light and simple on the TV screen ages ago, and turning it into something far more complex. Its a very noble gesture. However, this sort of thing has been done often enough that it might need a little bit more before it can really develop into something truly unique. The space fantasy of the action is really well captured, and theres a high Fidelity to the overall nature of that sort of thing. However, this particular iteration of the character really needs a little bit more depth in order for it to be able to do what it really needs to do and live up to its potential. Read Full Review

Though I'm not sure what Moltar's motivations are here, the action is great, and the character development is phenomenal. The setup of the elemental gun was an obvious payoff for the end of the issue, but the interaction between Jace and Space Ghost at the end was worth the cover price. Good job Pepose. What a difference between this book and the Punisher. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/8biQU5RaBIA?si=Id8vjMPF99F081tu

This was another great issue giving us a stand alone adventure while also continuing with where last issue left off. Like Zorak, Brak and the Widow, Pepose gave us a great intro to this new take on Moltar. Jace's self conflict was also a great plot for the issue. I'm glad to see he was able to deal with it in a single issue rather than a multiple chapter subplot arc like most of today's comics would do. That's really one of my favorite things about this series. It really takes me back to those Sci-fi superhero comics of the '70s and '80s. It also ended showing us more of Space Ghost's humane side at the end. Throughout this series he's been a determined sometimes hard crime fighter, but he also shows a side of compassion. Something writers seem to forget in characters like Batman anymore. Space Ghost seems to be paving the way for a Hanna-Barbera classic heroes comeback as we also have Jonny Quest and it's just been announced the Herculoids are also coming soon. It's a good time to be a fan of that stuff thanks to Dynamite. I've written Pepose himself about how much I enjoy this series and he seems to be very focused on it and intent on giving us as much of these great stories as he can for as long as we can. I'm very glad to hear that, because in this age of such flimsy DC and Marvel books it's good to have somewhere we can find good superhero comics. more
