In
WHISPERS, a chilling graphic novel by Joshua Luna (ULTRA, GIRLS, THE
SWORD) due out in June, Sam is a young man struggling with anxiety and
obsessive compulsive disorder when he suddenly gains the ability to
leave his body in “ghost” form and travel, free from his body, unseen.
As
he travels, Sam finds he can manipulate people, nudging them to perform
acts, as well as hear their thoughts. Unable to control this power,
Sam’s actions lead to uncontrollable consequences, and soon he finds
himself witnessing horrific acts. Can he right what has gone wrong in
his life? Or will he lose himself in a shadow world of demonic forces?
“We
are so accustomed to the filter that exists between a person's true
thoughts and feelings and what they actually express out loud that we
often don't know what it's like to get the raw truth,” said Luna, who
both wrote and drew WHISPERS. “But what if someone could override that
filter? What if someone could peek into your mind and know your deepest
fears and desires and use that knowledge to influence or even manipulate
you? Whispers is about the headspace that we all try to protect from
the outside world and how the awareness of its vulnerability can lead to
empowerment or destruction."
WHISPERS is an intense supernatural thriller, sure to captivate fans of television shows like the BBC’s and Syfy’s Being Human and dark fiction like Joe Hart’s The Waiting. It will be in comic book stores on June 11 and in bookstores on June 24.
