GHOST PROJEKT NEW EDITION

ONI PRESS PROUDLY PRESENTS THE RETURN OF A MODERN SUPERNATURAL CLASSIC! From acclaimed writer Joe Harris (The X-Files, Great Pacific) and Eisner Award–winning artist Steve Rolston (Queen & Country) comes a brand-new collected edition of their chilling post–Cold War thriller. In the frozen depths of Siberia lies a long-forgotten Soviet research facility. Abandoned at the end of the Cold War, it once housed a terrifying experiment—something powerful, something dangerous . . . and something that refuses to stay buried. When the weapon disappears into the hands of thieves who don’t fully understand what they’ve unleashed, US weapons inspector Will Haley is sent to investigate. Teaming up with Russian federal agent Anya Romanova, the two uncover a dark legacy of secrets, science, and spirits that neither nation ever intended to see the light of day. But the past does not die quietly—and in the shadows of old wars, ghosts still walk . . . Collecting Ghost Projekt #1–5 in a newly remastered edition to celebrate the series’ 15th anniversary.
