So are we agreed that ghosts are Los Angeles, the city of angels? Ha! Get it? …

Ghosted by Phil G. @ 09/26/2006 11:07 PM EDT

WHOOOO! Happy ghost rules! yeah! :D

Ghosted by Dre @ 09/26/2006 11:08 PM EDT

I get it, Phil G.

Hooray for pumps!

Ghosted by Katherine @ 09/26/2006 11:09 PM EDT

lol the pump shop rocks

Ghosted by Eddie Lightning Frog @ 09/26/2006 11:10 PM EDT

I love the expression of the Pump Store man, he’s the Boba Fett of Ghost With the Most.

Ghosted by Barry @ 09/26/2006 11:12 PM EDT

I’m so happy to see this. :) It’s the one and only thing that’s made me smile all day.

Ghosted by Ryane @ 09/26/2006 11:13 PM EDT

I love that the ghosts are concerned with Halloween decorations. As if *being* a Halloween decoration doesn’t earn you a free pass…

Ghosted by Welsh Rabbit @ 09/26/2006 11:16 PM EDT

Boo to you too, foo!

Ghosted by Frito @ 09/26/2006 11:19 PM EDT

Of all of Matt’s creations/posts, Ghost with the Most is well….the most best one….

Uhhh….yeah…I’m drunk….

Ghosted by Darth Galvatron @ 09/26/2006 11:57 PM EDT

It’s OFFICIALLY Halloween now. Not even kidding.

Ghosted by Kyle West @ 09/26/2006 11:59 PM EDT

He don’t ever wanna feel like he did that day.
‘minds me of junior high.  Bonus nostalgia.

Ghosted by Jessica Marie @ 09/27/2006 12:14 AM EDT

The scene at the window with the other ghost’ expression is very convincing. Sort of :D :) :|

Ghosted by dohopoki @ 09/27/2006 12:14 AM EDT

Awesome comic Matt!

Ghosted by mudogramx @ 09/27/2006 12:16 AM EDT

What is that song he is singing?  So it can be stuck in my head all day tomorrow

Ghosted by Goob @ 09/27/2006 12:23 AM EDT

That…was…fucking…AWESOME!!!!

You know what else is? Straight Outta Lynwood, which I got!

The 6 music videos doesn’t include the one for “White & Nerdy” (because it was made 3 weeks ago), but the ones that are…man, they kick ass! The videos besides the other 2 we saw already that I absolutely love are the ones by John K and the one by the Retarded Animal Babies one…I won’t spoil the titles for those out there who don’t have the CD yet/didn’t read the wikipedia page.

Ghosted by Invader Norbert @ 09/27/2006 12:30 AM EDT

I love the Ghost with the Most, but I love it even more because it was drawn in brown texta.

The simplicity! Pure genius!

Ghosted by Mazoo @ 09/27/2006 12:33 AM EDT

no joke! i was just watching the white and nerdy video right before i came here.

Ghosted by Eddie Lightning Frog @ 09/27/2006 12:33 AM EDT

under the bridge!  Red hot chilli peppers!!

“we want chili willi! we want chilli willi!”

now that there are two simpsons references so far in this thread it’s time to hit the sack. g’night everybody.

Ghosted by Goob @ 09/27/2006 12:45 AM EDT

Loved the sneaker pump joke.

Ghosted by JLAJRC @ 09/27/2006 12:54 AM EDT

i’m glad you decided to draw reebok pumps, and not those fake high heel things. did those things really explode when you pumped them a million times?

Ghosted by matty @ 09/27/2006 1:08 AM EDT

Thanks for the ghost, but I missed the real party–a Perfect Strangers discussion. Everybody, go back one blog page so I can take part!

Ghosted by Mars @ 09/27/2006 1:52 AM EDT

Goddamnit!!! I Can’t Read Tonight’s Countdown Entry!!! Right Now The Only Way I Can Access The Net Is With My crappy Little Cell Phone Mini Browser. The Reason For This Is Im A Broke-ass Bum Who Cant Aford A Cell Phone A N D Internet Service At The Same Time. So, I Thereby Suck Because Due To The Size Of My Phone’s Screen (about 1 Inch By 1 Inch) The Pictures Are Too Small And I Can’t Read The Text In Tonight’s Halloween Countdown Article!!! Aaaaarrrggh! Bummer! Poopie!  Drat! Curses! Dangnabbit! Motherfucker! Shucks, & Darn It All To Heck! I’ll Check Back Tomorrow. This Had Better Not Be A Multi-part Story! I Hope Tomorrow’s Entry Is Some Kinda Old 80s Cartoon Or Commercial Review. But Then I Always Hope Every New X-e Article Is About That Kind Of Thing. Oh Well, Enough Bitching…keep Up The Awesome Fucking Work, Matt! Much Love To You, X-e, And Every Other Regular X-e Reader!!! Keep Kicking Ass, Everyone!!!

Ghosted by antenna villain @ 09/27/2006 2:44 AM EDT

Matt, I like how happy the ghost on the right is in the seventh frame.

It just makes my night :-D

Ghosted by Jester @ 09/27/2006 2:49 AM EDT

MOST EXCELLENT!

Ghosted by Greg @ 09/27/2006 7:09 AM EDT

Thank you for that cartoon.  Love it.

Ghosted by kb @ 09/27/2006 9:06 AM EDT

OK, I think you may have missed your true calling in life: Cartoon ghosts

These are always my favorite part of the countdown! This one was almost as good as “I came 2 see garlic!”

Maybe we should have another halloween art contest?

Ghosted by B-Dawg @ 09/27/2006 9:11 AM EDT

Well, I think it’s safe to say that so far, the Halloween Countdown is kicking ass!

Ghosted by Deuce @ 09/27/2006 9:19 AM EDT

I enjoy reading the ghost with the most comics more than the funnies in the news paper. Pumps, thats just great, I didnt even see it coming.

Ghosted by IHAQ @ 09/27/2006 9:23 AM EDT

I really hope that in ten thousand years, “The Ghost With the Most” will be the only written clues archaeologists have to unravel the secrets of our forgotten culture.  Does anyone have any gold plates we could engrave it on?

Ghosted by Jedoc @ 09/27/2006 9:44 AM EDT

Ghost with the most works for Hallmark now?

Ghosted by Dan @ 09/27/2006 9:49 AM EDT

Great comic :). They should really do a buddy comedy.
antenna villain reminded me: I can report that the whole site looks fucking gorge on a Sony PSP, even the frames on the front page. Out of the three mobile devices I’ve tried (Treo and Blackberry) it was the nicest looking.

Ghosted by squee4242 @ 09/27/2006 9:51 AM EDT

Pure goofy greatness! Awesome!

Ghosted by Erich @ 09/27/2006 10:00 AM EDT

antenna villain, does that mean you typed all that on a phone keypad?  If so, impressive.

Ghosted by johnny @ 09/27/2006 10:53 AM EDT

Awwww.  I wanna hug that sad ghost.  Even though I know it’s physically impossible. 

Bravo, Matt!

Ghosted by LemurCat @ 09/27/2006 10:53 AM EDT

but seriously folks(hahaha, i’ve always wanted to say that!) the hallo’ countdown is fucking rocking my socks off, and i dont even wear socks!!, one of life’s little misteries i suppose! and ‘MATTY’: i had 2 pairs of the original late eighties early nineties pumps. and dammit if i didnt give myself arthritis from tryin to make those suckers explode! (haha a 10 yr old with arthritis, makes me smile!) but to no avail!, maybe some of our other x-e bro’s and sisters had more luck!

Ghosted by JoshC @ 09/27/2006 10:55 AM EDT

B-Dawg, I just quoted that line the other day while I was cooking. I think it still ranks as my favorite Ghost With The Most moment.

This was a great entry though. Definitely didn’t disappoint. Their little ghost expressions say so much. In fact, they’re like the Jack Bennys of hand-drawn ghost web comics.

Ghosted by Lori @ 09/27/2006 11:02 AM EDT

Excellent use of a brown marker, Matt.  Hilarious and heartfelt.  Good stuff.  :)

Ghosted by Muppet Baby @ 09/27/2006 11:32 AM EDT

That’s what I think about that stupid shirt at Target. Hahahaha, this is my Halloween Costume, NO!

Ghosted by Fox @ 09/27/2006 11:38 AM EDT

Oh God, we totally need Ghost With the Most T-shirts. :o

My favorite part was when he said “Will you shut the fuck up and help me with this?!” :lol: I feel much better today than I did yesterday. I owe it to Matt and the Ghosts.

Ghosted by Ryane @ 09/27/2006 12:04 PM EDT

I would personally like to nominate this episode of The Ghost With The Most for the Best use of a Red Hot Chili Pepper song in a cartoon in which ghosts light things on fire.

Thank you so very much for the Awesomeness Matt!!

Ghosted by theniXer @ 09/27/2006 12:43 PM EDT

Many thanks, Matt. The appearance of the Ghost with the Most has made my day. Now, the only thing this Halloween countdown needs to be TRULY complete is a review of the old Ghostbusters episode where the Ghostbusters battled the followers of Cthulu… *hint hint*

Ghosted by DocDragon @ 09/27/2006 1:47 PM EDT

I got nothing.

I beat Riku, Ryane. And The Clocktower Phantom, Kurt Zisa (KHs own General Grievous!!!), and the Ice Titan.

Now if Sephiroth would just stop beating me to death :(

Ghosted by K- @ 09/27/2006 3:31 PM EDT

If he just didn’t brag on himself too much….
My “Change of Seasons Cold” hit earlier than usual, but GWTM helps the immune system.

Ghosted by kingklash @ 09/27/2006 4:14 PM EDT

Somewhere, the Brothers Chaps are sobbing that they didn’t think of something like this for Homestarrunner before you did.

Good Jorb.

Ghosted by Yooka @ 09/27/2006 4:39 PM EDT

Man, I wish you didn’t need to eat or sleep or work and just did Halloween updates all day. It helps me ignore all my homework.

Ghosted by def. @ 09/27/2006 5:25 PM EDT

Ghost with the most made me laugh, and I really needed it.

Thanks, Matt.

Ghosted by Cameron T. @ 09/27/2006 7:34 PM EDT

Update: Sephiroth, once again, is my bitch.

Ghosted by K- @ 09/27/2006 7:35 PM EDT

I’ve decided that my halloween decorations have to include a wooden sign, proclaiming its reason for being there is to be a halloween decoration!

Thanks, GWTM!

Ghosted by IHAQ @ 09/27/2006 7:50 PM EDT

OMG! I love Ghost with the Most. These ghosts are like the Halloween equivilant of Knacks and Kuse.

Oh man, XE knows holidays, I tell ya.

Ghosted by Kris @ 09/27/2006 8:13 PM EDT

So long I’ve waited for this.  Ghost with the Most has inspired me to post like a marshmallow roast.  And to rhyme, apparently… shmapparently.

K-, in beating Sephy, you have become my father or mother, whatever the case may be.  You’re my parent of undetermined gender.

Ghosted by Teh C @ 09/27/2006 10:22 PM EDT

I like that new Canadian Idiot song on Weird Al’s new album, but I think Dino-Mike’s Green Day parody (Canadian Immigrant) is better.

Cool cartoon too Matt.

Ghosted by mjf7583 @ 09/27/2006 10:25 PM EDT

Thanks for the compliment, Teh C!!!! At least, I think it was a compliment. I’m taking it as one.

Once you learn the timing for recovering from Sin Harvest, and how to keep up with him to prevent him from doing it, it just becomes a matter of Ars Arcanum Ad Nauseum.

That makes it sound simple, it was not. He’s definitely up there with Ozma, and the various Weapons of his home series fame.

Luck AND Skill slay the biggest beasts. :)

Ghosted by K- @ 09/27/2006 10:47 PM EDT

Proudly double posting!

While I like the idea of being an “indeterminate gender,” for future reference, I am a genetic male. Socially, emotionally, and fashionably, everyone here knows it’s still up for debate :P

Ghosted by K- @ 09/27/2006 10:52 PM EDT

I totally had those L.A. Gear Air Pumps.  Later on, I got me some of those L.A. Gear Lights shoes.  Y’know the ones that had the cheap little lights and the sensors so that every time you started walking the lights would blink.  Whatever happened to gimmicky shoes?

Ghosted by Nate @ 09/29/2006 5:46 PM EDT

I should probably mention that every kid on the schoolyard was randomly running up to me and pumping my shoes.  I didn’t even know most of these kids.  Furthermore, every kid in my class was coming up to my desk and asking if they could pump my shoes.  Who would’ve thought I’d be so popular.  I thanked my Mom every day for agreeing to buy me those shoes.  If only they still made those, then maybe my popularity would be what it once was.  Meh.  Probably not.

Ghosted by Nate @ 09/29/2006 5:51 PM EDT

GAAAAAH-LICK!

Ghosted by EMERIL @ 09/30/2006 8:50 PM EDT

YAY! I hate the Ghost with the Most! Wheeeeee!!!!

Ghosted by Jinx Mesmer @ 10/01/2006 1:06 PM EDT

OK so, I am gonna repost something here today.  I thought the latest edition of Ghost with the most was seriously lacking the funny.  Also, I thought the (mundane brown) color scheme left it a little bland.  Seriously Matt, the Ghosties deserved better ;)

Ghosted by Old E @ 10/02/2006 2:20 PM EDT

Forgot to mention that the ghostly eyebrows seem to vanish and reappear at will.  Originally I thought this was a defining characteristic, sort of like a way to tell identical twins apart.  No, I am sad to say this is not the case as both ghosts have had eyebrows that vanish at will.  Thats OK though, cause a ghost with hair just doesn;t work for me either. ;) ;) (two winks)
