SPECTREGRAPH #1
Modern masters James Tynion IV and Christian Ward join forces to bring you their next horror classic. A ghost story steeped in the decay of a century of capitalism.
For years, the mansion has sat strangely, nestled into the coastline just a short drive north of Los Angeles. Rumors have haunted the place for years, its owner a titan of American industry with a strange fascination in the occult and the paranormal. For decades, the richest men and women in the country have whispered to each other, trying to understand what he was building alone in that mansion for all those years. And now finally, with his death, and his estate open for sale…they are eager to find out for themselves.
Two of the most celebrated visionaries of the medium, multiple-Eisner Award winners James Tynion IV (The Nice House on the Lake, Something is Killing the Children, W0rldtr33) and Christian Ward (Batman: City of Madness, Invisible Kingdom) invite you into the world of SPECTREGRAPH, a haunting, cerebral horror story that peels back the layers of America’s opulent wealth and uncovers the rot underneath. But be careful: once you enter, you may never leave.
SPECTREGRAPH #1 will be on sale at local comic shops and online via dstlry.co on April 24.
