BOOM! Studios has announced a May launch for Ghostlore from writer Cullen Bunn and an assortment of artists.
Here’s how BOOM! describes the book:
"We’ve all heard of ghost stories…but what ghost stories to the ghost themselves tell?
« After a deadly accident, estranged father and daughter Lucas and Harmony Agate can see the dead…an overwhelming amount of them. Each one with their own warnings, cries for help, and malevolence alike. But the pastor and his daughter aren’t the only ones with this haunting ability; there are other nearly-deads, some of which have malicious intentions… »
« Ghostlore is something of an ambitious concept, » Bunns said. « It started with a simple question I asked myself. ‹ What ghost stories would ghosts tell? › From there, though, it spun into this epic story of family, loss, grief, and…just possibly, the end of the world. It’s been in my head for a while, but I wanted to wait until the stars aligned, so to speak, to even give it a try. I’m lucky to be working with an artist as talented as Leomacs on the main story, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the cadre of amazing creators who will be illustrating the ghost stories in each and every issue. It all comes together in a book unlike anything else I’ve worked on. »
