Etcetera. A few of his wishes actually do mirror those of “The Monkey’s Paw,” albeit with a slight twist in perception.Welch is just right for the lead: he has to be likable enough, but also kind of an arrogant ass, which is a tricky balance that can easily tip too far. Not Brand Echh: The Complete Collection (graphic novel review).

Horror stories about wishes gone wrong have been a staple at least since “The Monkey’s Paw” saw print. Consequently, the meatiness to the madness may appear slight but the bone to this twitchy tale is upright in its coarse conviction. Woodward’s ‘The Final Wish’ is a warped wake-up call for those wanting to take the shortcut to true satisfaction of the mind, body, and soul.
