Inspired by firsthand paranormal encounters at the liminal edges of human perception, SpectreVision co-founder and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah joins acclaimed writer Cecil Castellucci (Shade the Changing Woman) and rising star Chloé Stawski (Sapphic Pulp) for our fourth incursion into the unifying forces behind startling phenomena—UFOs, hauntings, anomalous animals, and more—with a tale of deep-black government experiments, psychic research, and destiny among the stars . . . Adeline is a lonely, lost aspiring artist. Raised in foster care and languishing in the cruelty and ignorance of turn-of-the-millenium America, her life is without direction or higher purpose. But when she’s recruited by a mysterious program that seeks to study her latent telepathic abilities inside a deep-underground military base, she starts down a path she was maybe always traveling . . . a path that reaches a major crossroads when she meets the ethereal Lyriana and finds her long-lost spiritual connection in the process. But when Lyriana suddenly disappears, Adeline must question the true nature of her new masters . . . and test the limits of her abilities to see if love truly is eternal.

From genre-colliding production company SpectreVision and groundbreaking comic book publisher Oni Press, the startling five-part expedition into the dimly lit borderlands of human experience—where phenomena like UFOs, hauntings, cryptid sightings, and inexplicable synchronicities overlap and bleed through the very fabric of reality itself—continues as writer, producer, and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah teams with Eisner Award nominee Christopher Cantwell (The Flash, Out of Alcatraz) and rising star Valeria Burzo (EC’s Epitaphs from the Abyss) to bring HIGH STRANGENESS to 1983.

On her 30th birthday, Cindy Freeman successfully tests her newly invented microcontroller Lifeboat—a device that can be plugged into any damaged system and repair its operating functions. After a freak accident on their way to celebratory drinks, she and her father walk away from a massive car crash surprisingly unscathed… but in the days that follow—including the theft of Lifeboat, the sudden and suspicious lack of interest from the company that had been eager to acquire it, and the uncanny deterioration of her father and the world around them—she becomes convinced they’re trapped inside some reality-bending danger and mere pawns in a life-and-death game of corporate espionage.

Presented in an extra-sized and ad-free prestige format with cardstock covers, each 40-page issue of HIGH STRANGENESS also includes a brand-new nonfiction special feature exploring the real-life documented history behind each interlocking chapter.

SpectreVision, the genre-distorting production company co-founded by Elijah Wood and Daniel Noah, joins forces with Oni Press and a rotating cast of premier comics talents for an unprecedented excursion into HIGH STRANGENESS—a brand-new series influenced by real, documented cases of paranormal phenomena, to reveal the liminal spaces where reality and hallucination and science and mythology give way to cosmic wonder and existential terror . . . In the first double-sized, prestige format chapter: Writer, producer, and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah joins acclaimed writer Chris Condon (Ultimate Wolverine, That Texas Blood) and Ringo Award–winning artist Dave Chisholm (Plague House) for an unexpected encounter with the Men in Black . . . Chicago, 1967. Magazine writer Harry Kean is dispatched to rural Indiana to investigate the sudden disappearance of Becky Plume, a local teenager who stepped into the national spotlight with staggering photographic evidence of a recent UFO sighting. Frustrated to leave his developing stories in Chicago—and the wife he’s hoping to win back—Harry sets off to expose a hoax but instead finds himself in a labyrinth of high strangeness involving a missing girl, her boyfriend, a UFO, and some mysterious black-clad visitors circling at the perimeter of a mystery more vast than Harry could possibly imagine. Told across five interconnected, prestige-format issues that will interlock to reveal an ambitious, dimension-spanning finale, each chapter of HIGH STRANGENESS also includes a feature-length essay by podcaster and researcher Jim Perry (Euphomet) on the historical facts and documentary evidence underpinning the phenomena detailed in each issue.
