Ryan’s new friends, Opal and Sahir, convince him to take the job hosting the ghost hunting show, but only after he explains to them why he doesn’t want to do it, and that their lives might be in danger.
Opal and Sahir dismiss it, and set off with the new team hunting ghosts. But Ryan is right. Something is now out there looking for him, and now they’re all in danger.
An edgy, potent adventure series that’s part science-fiction, part detective series, part western, Edgeworld is a unique blend of energy, comedy and darkness like nothing you’ve ever read. Edgeworld Volume 2 is written by Chuck Austen with art by Patrick Olliffe.
On the edge of known space, on the backwater, frontier planet of Pala, magistrate Killian Jess, and native Palan Cheela fight to protect a planet, and people, the rest of the galaxy has forgotten. Battling military occupation, alien invasions, otherworldly infestations, drug running, gang violence, black market traders, and the disastrous, ecological aftermath of a brutal, planet-wide war, they must learn to work together and collect any allies they can from the castoffs, misfits, and aliens occupying Pala, in order to save the place they love.

After a shocking revelation about his own part in Cheela’s life, the Historian begins to suspect that the old woman he has been paying for glimpses into the past is conning him. In an effort to prove that the past she shows him is real, and that he really is Cheela’s brother, the old woman shows him the day that Killian adopted Cheela, giving more insight into their contentious and violent relationship. This vision gives the Historian a new drive to discover if Killian, Shay, Doc, and Jasper might possibly have been real people, lost in a dark, and misunderstood time. What he finds only leaves him not only shocked, but more deeply confused.

This fall, comic book writer Chuck Austen is making his surprise return to comics.
Austen’s controversial takes on mainstream superhero characters divided fandom with their romance fueled storylines. Now he’s partnering with his good friend, long-time Marvel/DC artist Patrick Olliffe to create Edgeworld, an edgy expectation-busting western set in the far reaches of outer space. The latest creator-owned comic book series from comiXology Originals, Edgeworld is a gritty, sexy, potent adventure series that’s part science fiction, part detective series, and part western. Joining Austen and Olliffe (who is illustrating his first creator-owned series) are acclaimed colorist Lee Loughridge, letterer Jodi Wynne, and editor Bis Stringer-Horne. Edgeworld debuts September 15, 2020 with issue #1 of 5.
