Description
Inspired by firsthand accounts of paranormal encounters, Oni Press’ startling five-part experiment in comic book storytelling continues with an enthralling new 40-page chapter from SpectreVision co-founder and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah, acclaimed writer Zac Thompson (Cemetery Kids Run Rabid), and fast-rising star Noah Bailey (Station Grand, Double Walker) diving headlong into the dimly lit borderlands of human experience, where overlapping phenomena like UFOs, hauntings, and inexplicable synchronicities indicate a higher, unseen order of reality . . . A prison-transfer bus has just crashed on an isolated forest road in Washington state in the deep winter, sending the lone survivor, inmate Elwood Krieger, running into the woods. When he encounters and fights off a mysterious creature, he finds he’s accidentally killed a juvenile Sasquatch. Barely escaping the wrath of its grieving mother, Krieger starts a new, secret life in a nearby community, hoping to stay under the radar of the law. But when the mother discovers him and the woman loves, Krieger is faced with much harder decisions than fight or flight . . . Plus: The next extra-sized, ad-free, prestige-format installment of HIGH STRANGENESS also includes an all-new nonfiction essay charting the ever-evolving history of the Sasquatch phenomenon by researcher and podcast host Jim Perry (Euphomet).
