Max will always be a jerk about it. It’s his thing


So seeing how I am already at the end of chapter 2, this is the best place as any to end it.
It is cool to see Max get into his first battle with a ghost, and we have some really nifty hints over what the ghosts and their powers can do.
It looks like general ghosts can sense the presence of other ghosts. They can only touch other paranormal objects, so it is strange for ghosts to touch people and weapons. So Max is a strange one even for the ghosts.
Based on Frog Man, Spectrals aren’t always allies to ghosts. Sure they stop rampaging ones, but nothing points to them actually helping them. Ghosts could possess people or objects, but it sounds like they are physically tying their being to a specific object. Sort of like a phylactery for a litch. And the kids can use them as tools, and it sounds like they have a lot of tools then. I feel sort of bad for the ghosts. Like maybe there is a way out or something, or a way for them to talk. Because Frog Man was funny and I want him back.
Max’s mom or someone threw the soup. We can all agree on that.
And the Snake thing, that is coming back. It seems to be another realm or astral plane or something like that. Somewhere dangerous. I mean, time froze damn it, and Max was the one to see it! Max has a stronger power than anything the kids/Spender has every seen.
This was a good step in the right direction!


PJ died in the 1800s, nothing else explains it

Max is trying his best here, ok. This is a lot to take in


true, but he still broke the glass

I mean fair, but I guess that means that either Max summoned the can himself, or his mom threw it

Isabel! Chill! Not all ghosts are Bad! You talked to plenty at school! Stop threatening people with your horse demigorgan!

The clubs know the basics, but they don’t know the actual dangers do they?

He absolutely needs a manual

Or, even better, wings

It’s the ghost version of the Pentacles from Avatar

You’re new friends are nuts

Or came here faster, instead of harvesting ghosts to do your bidding

it’s been a night

How many do you have? Are the sentient in there? Can you still talk to them?


Because the rest of the plungers are used in the family bathroom

So…tools are just items possessed by ghosts? Is that what the Frog meant by “servitude”?
