Plot:
Adam Moon and his teenage friends go to the circus to hang out and avoid the stifling small town boredom that plagues them. While there, Adam receives disturbing, unsolicited advice from some of the circus cast and begins to see flashes of frightening figures. Confused, Adam becomes separated from his friends and is beckoned into the blind fortune tellers hut where his life as an abused child is reviewed. Dazed by the turn of events, Adam runs home before he can receive further advice. Elsewhere, after the show, the Ringmaster morphs into a strange creature...

First issue. Good story, the authors are slowly starting to describe us the KISS caracters more as spirits than superheroes, so that's from my point of view a great concept. They don't have a lot of interaction in this first issue but they will have more of it in further issues. The cover is horrible (it seems to be that way for the first 6 issues) but the inside drawings colors are really beautiful, rarely I've seen comic books looking so good. For a first issue it's a really good effort. Not a lot of references in it, but again they will bring more on further issues.
