Image Comics has provided a ferromagnetic first look at THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH #1.
The press release follows:
Media Release -- Cole Turner has studied conspiracy theories all his life, but he isn't prepared for what happens when he discovers that all of them are true, from the JFK assassination to flat Earth theory and reptilian shapeshifters. One organization has been covering them up for generations. What is the deep, dark secret behind the Department of Truth?
Bestselling writer JAMES TYNION IV (Batman, Something is Killing the Children) debuts his first Image ONGOING SERIES alongside breakout artist MARTIN SIMMONDS (Dying is Easy)!
"Genuinely one of the best comics you'll read this year. Do not miss it." —Scott Snyder
"A wonderfully dizzy mixture of Men in Black, John Carpenter, Stephen King, The Matrix, and 1970s conspiracy thrillers." —Forbes
"A new conspiracy thriller comic that should appeal to anyone with a fondness for The X-Files." —IGN
"Wow! This is something truly fantastic. I can't wait for more. Let your retailer know you want a copy ASAP!" —Alex Segura
"It's superb." —Fraser Campbell
"Feels like huge incoming hit from Image. Hickmanian conspiracy games, Burroughsian crime, Sienkiewiczian style. The Truth: you want it. Speak to your retailer." —Kieron Gillen
"Brilliant set up, chilling truths and a jaw dropping reveal all wrapped up in the most sublime painted interiors. Highly recommended!" —Caspar Wijngaard
"A Tour de force. Martin Simmonds doing the best work I've seen him do. Aditya Bidikar really pushing what can be done with letters. James Tynion IV has written a gripping story." —Dee Cunniffe
"Wow. Reminded me of '70s paranoia films I love like The Parallax View filtered through Elektra Assassin and Twin Peaks The Return. A huge thumbs up from me." —Iain Laurie
"Wow. This one is unmissable. It's giving me The Parallax View or maybe even 7 Days in May—it feels steeped in that wonderful paranoid cinema of the '60s/'70s with a surreal twist." —Helen Mullane
"One of the best comics of 2020 and beyond. Calling it now." —Nick Robles
