THE PASSAGEWAY, the first book in my new horror universe with partner Andrea Sorrentino, THE BONE ORCARD, are out this month and now Image Comics. have released the first preview of the next instalment, a 5-part miniseries, TEN THOUSAND BLACK FEATHERS!
The official press release below…
From the acclaimed creative team behind Gideon Falls, Primordial, and The Passageway comes a new series in the bold and ambitious shared horror universe of The Bone Orchard Mythos—Ten Thousand Black Feathers by Jeff Lemire, Andrea Sorrentino and Dave Stewart. This chilling new tale of terror will land on shelves from Image Comics in September.
“The Passageway introduces readers to the Bone Orchard and now with Ten Thousand Black Feathers we dig in and really start to explore this new universe,” said Lemire. “This is a story of friendship, coming of age and imagination that is equal parts horrific, mysterious and heart wrenching.”
Trish and Jackie are best friends and avid gamers. But when the line between reality and their fantasy world is blurred by an evil darkness, can they be the heroes of their own story?
Sorrentino added: “Ten Thousand Black Feathers will be the second installment of our descent into the Bone Orchard Mythos world and it’s a dark mystery that influenced (unfortunately, for the worst) the lives of the two women for more than 20 years. The way the story is laid out—told between present and a mysterious past—gave me the chance to play with styles in a way that will be new to readers of The Passageway. Can’t wait for readers to pick up the first issue this September!”
Lemire and Sorrentino’s The Bone Orchard Mythos is a shared Horror universe that kicked off with the release of The Passageway original graphic novel. It will continue to feature self-contained graphic novels and limited series about the unsettling darkness waiting to be discovered within the Bone Orchard.
