INVASIVE #1-3 (Cullen Bunn / Jesus Hervas)

blob

Media Release — Oni Press, is proud to announce INVASIVE #1 (of 4) – a terrifying new experiment in pain from Eisner Award nominee Cullen Bunn (THE SIXTH GUN, BASILISK) and acclaimed illustrator Jesús Hervás (THE EMPTY MAN), beginning in December 2023!

“INVASIVE might very well go down as Cullen Bunn’s ultimate statement on what the horror comic can and should be. As both a mystery and meditation on the addictive nature of power, INVASIVE is one of the most compelling, thought-provoking, and genuinely rattling projects that I have ever had the privilege to shepherd forward,” said Oni Press President & Publisher Hunter Gorinson. “We can’t share too much for fear of spoiling what Cullen and Jesús have planned, except to say this: No matter what you think…you are not ready.”

“INVASIVE is a thing of nightmare. For me, literally,” said Cullen Bunn. “The initial seed of the idea sprang from a terrifying nightmare that startled me awake in the dark. While developing the idea, I was beset by even more nightmares. And while writing it? You guessed it. Nightmares. It’s a book that worries and haunts me, and I think it represents a bit of a signpost in the road of my approach to horror in general. I believe that in the years to come, it will be thought of as one of my most disturbing stories.”

Look for more details about INVASIVE to be revealed in the months ahead…and, in the meantime, Oni Press is offering backers of the currently ongoing SIXTH GUN DELUXE OMNIBUS LIBRARY campaign on Kickstarter a special look ahead at the upcoming series! In tandem with this announcement, Oni Press is revealing a secret Stretch Goal for the ongoing campaign collecting the entirety of Cullen Bunn & Brian Hurtt’s action-adventure masterwork with the INVASIVE #1 ASHCAN – a top-secret, limited-edition bonus item that will be automatically awarded to all physical backers at the Tier 3 level or higher!

Oni Press is excited to reveal the first interior preview of INVASIVE #1 (of 4) – a terrifying new experiment in pain from Eisner Award nominee Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Ghostlore) and acclaimed illustrator Jesús Hervás (The Empty Man) – debuting in comic shops everywhere December 6th.

Dr. Carrie Reynolds was a veteran trauma surgeon with a godlike mastery of muscle and bone. But outside the operating room, her rigidly ordered life spiraled into chaos when her daughter, Heather—a recovering plastic surgery addict—suddenly disappeared, only to mysteriously reemerge in a catatonic state, her vocal cords removed . . . the latest in a series of victims all scarred by a battery of brazenly cruel medical procedures that have baffled police and left an alarming number of once-ordinary citizens maimed, mutilated, or dead on arrival.

Because, deep beneath the streets of Carrie’s city, a new kind of underground hospital has just opened its doors . . . and, once inside, there are no rules, no oaths, and no taboos too deep to not to be broken. Together, a new class of surgeon has sworn to pierce the final threshold of accepted medical orthodoxy one incision at a time.

The scalpel is their tool. The alleys are their operating theater. Murder is their medicine. And only Carrie can stop what they’re planning next . . .

Dig deep into the New Year’s most anticipated new series when ONI 2024 begins with a bang in the pages of INVASIVE #1 – on sale December 6th from horror masters Cullen Bunn and Jesús Hervás!

Oni 2024’s staggering slice of surgical horror takes a wrenching twist with creators Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Basilisk) and Jes s Hervás (The Empty Man)!

At last, Vic and Carrie have gained entrance into the underground hospital where surgery addicts can get experimental, dangerous, and unnecessary procedures to fuel their compulsions at the sadistic-but-practiced hands of the mysterious Dr. Ware. His procedures, once taken too far, engender a new blasphemy . . . one that is now spilling into the streets as his deformed former patients-the murder surgeons-exercise their ritual of pain and transformation on unsuspecting victims.
