From the minds of Ghost Machine creators Peter J. Tomasi and Peter Snejbjerg comes an epic tale of Good vs. Evil in the upcoming, Hornsby & Halo, set in Ghost Machine’s Family Odysseys universe. This all-new, eagerly awaited ongoing series is set to launch on November 27 from Image Comics.
Keeping the cosmic peace isn’t easy. But in Hornsby & Halo, the opposing leaders of Heaven and Hell broker a deal that trades Zachary Halo, an angel child, to a demon family, and Rose Hornsby, a demon child, to an angel family, and hope this truce will halt the winds of war. It’s Nature versus Nurture as the turbulence of adolescence comes crashing down on two teenagers who have no idea just who and what they truly are…yet.

After an explosive debut in the Johns and Frank’s inaugural Geiger miniseries, Junkyard Joe starred in its own sellout miniseries by Johns and Frank and published by Image Comics. The silent soldier has emerged as a key figure in the world of The Unnamed, a group of seemingly desperate heroes who—both together and separately throughout time—must fight a Great Evil. Junkyard Joe #1: Special Black & White Veterans Edition helped raise awareness and funds in support of the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans and the Veterans Aid (in the U.K). Continuing its support, Ghost Machine produced a special Junkyard Joe t-shirt with full proceeds going to the NCHV and VA, available via the GHOST MACHINE Threadless store.
The original Junkyard Joe #1-#6 is currently available as a trade paperback collection edition and debuts in an oversized, deluxe hardcover on Wednesday, November 6 with exclusive commentary from the entire creative team including Johns, Frank, Anderson and letterer Rob Leigh.
In addition to presenting a first look at the Joe collectible, Johns will be signing at the Ghost Machine booth #1629 on Thursday, July 26 and Friday, July 27 from 3-4 p.m. Johns will also appear at the Image Comics booth #1915 for a signing on Friday, July 27 from 10-11 a.m. and be one of the featured panelists at the Image Comics Panel: Storytelling, Genre, and Crafting Unforgettable Comics, also on Friday, July 27 from 1-2 p.m. (room 25ABC).

For now.
