Oni Press has revealed the first interior preview of INVASIVE #1, the first release under the ONI 2024 banner.
The press release follows:
Media Release -- Oni Press is excited to reveal the first interior preview of INVASIVE #1 (of 4) – a terrifying new experiment in pain from Eisner Award nominee Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Ghostlore) and acclaimed illustrator Jesús Hervás (The Empty Man) – debuting in comic shops everywhere December 6th.
Dr. Carrie Reynolds was a veteran trauma surgeon with a godlike mastery of muscle and bone. But outside the operating room, her rigidly ordered life spiraled into chaos when her daughter, Heather—a recovering plastic surgery addict—suddenly disappeared, only to mysteriously reemerge in a catatonic state, her vocal cords removed . . . the latest in a series of victims all scarred by a battery of brazenly cruel medical procedures that have baffled police and left an alarming number of once-ordinary citizens maimed, mutilated, or dead on arrival.
Because, deep beneath the streets of Carrie's city, a new kind of underground hospital has just opened its doors . . . and, once inside, there are no rules, no oaths, and no taboos too deep to not to be broken. Together, a new class of surgeon has sworn to pierce the final threshold of accepted medical orthodoxy one incision at a time.
The scalpel is their tool. The alleys are their operating theater. Murder is their medicine. And only Carrie can stop what they're planning next . . .
Featuring covers by Jesús Hervás (Marvel Unleashed), Luana Vecchio (Lovesick), Brian Level (Cosmic Ghost Rider, Night People) and comics superstar Jae Lee (Stephen King's The Dark Tower), INVASIVE #1 is the much-anticipated first release under the ONI 2024 banner – a slate of five propulsive new monthly comic series from a wide-ranging cast of award-winning creators and fast-rising stars that fully embrace the potential of the comics medium to invert, collide, and reinvent the foundational genres of horror, science fiction, crime, fantasy, and beyond:
