(W) Steve Niles (A/CA) Christopher Mitten. From Black Mask Comics. Dagmar* Rick* and Jules* intrepid private eyes/bounty hunters* have been hired by a high ranking Senator to retrieve his teenage daughter who's run off to join a mysterious religious cult. This is no ordinary cult though. In the near future of The Disciples* the ultra-wealthy have become true Masters of the Universe by colonizing moons throughout the solar system. Billionaire industrialist McCauley Richmond is one such colonist: he's built a new society on Ganymede* a moon of Jupiter* where his flock of cultists can have the religious freedom to worship him. But when the team reaches Ganymede in their Starship Venture* they discover something has gone horribly wrong ... This ghost story in space reunites comics' king of the macabre* Steve Niles* with his longtime collaborator Christopher Mitten* whose stylish mix of grit and flow matches Steve's sharp characterizations and taste for screams. Scheduled to ship 07/22/15. (2479)
