« Called Witness Point, the story takes place in a bucolic town where residents are rocked by the news that they’ve been a dumping ground for the witness protection program for the past 40 years… And suddenly, nobody trusts their neighbour anymore…Plus, there’s the dead body of the guy who claimed to be a U.S. Marshal to worry about. Now, it’s up to the town’s sheriff, who’s harbouring a massive secret of his own, a female Marshal, and a crew of town weirdos to expose what’s actually going on. »
« Heath pulled me into his world for Witness Point, and I knew we had to team up to make a comic series. I’m excited to collaborate with him — as well as my partners Michelle Chapman and Josh Levy — to bring this thrilling story to life with Dark Horse Entertainment. I love this project and can’t wait to support it at San Diego Comic-Con, » says Nathan Fillion.
In a recent interview, Nathan Fillion said, « I am a fan of comic books. All the stuff I got in trouble for when I was a kid, daydreaming and drawing in the margins of my binders when I should have been studying, it’s all prepared me for this moment. »
Dark Horse Comics presents Witness Point, a new four-issue comic series written by actor Nathan Fillion and screenwriter/comic author Heath Corson and illustrated by award-winning illustrator Soo Lee. Witness Point #1 will feature cover art by Lee and Shawn Martinbrough with Chris Sotomayor and will arrive in comic shops in July 2026.
Welcome to Baraboo, Wisconsin, a friendly town full of cold beers and warm hearts—heck, it’s even the headquarters of the Ding-A-Ling Circus—a place where everyone gets along . . .
At least, they did, until the naked, dismembered body of a US Marshal was found in the town square, revealing Baraboo’s dark secret: It’s the dumping ground for the Witness Protection Program. Turns out, for the past forty years, every criminal, con man, and killer who flipped on their pals has been relocated to “Witness Point.”
Now, the long-suffering local sheriff, Carter “Kite” Calhoon, and a contentious deputy marshal, Priya Khabrani, are forced together to solve the murder only days before the town’s beloved Harvest Festival. Which won’t be easy in the face of rising paranoia and tempers as everyone in Baraboo wonders just what kind of lowlife they’re living next to . . .
Witness Point #1 (of 4) arrives in comic shops on July 8, 2026. It is now available for preorder from your local comic shop for $4.99.

Witness Point #2
The ghoulish mystery of the dismembered John Doe deepens as Deputy Marshal Priya Khabrani and Sheriff Kite Carter scramble to solve the murder, but as their investigation threatens the safety of those ensconced in witness protection in this idyllic Midwestern town—a former Mafia hitman turned pizza maestro, a seemingly reformed militia leader, and an unrepentant love cult guru up to his old tricks, to name a few—it becomes abundantly clear to the Sheriff that the Marshal’s abrasive, full-contact style of questioning won’t make her many friends around Witness Point. Plus, with the True Crime Club compromising their probe with their new podcast, Kite and Priya are forced into playing catch-up to the town’s teenage reporters. Oh, and someone just tried to burn down the local insurance offices, which . . . apparently was also the town’s secret sports book? How is all connected? Find out in Witness Point #2.
