Inspired by firsthand paranormal encounters at the liminal edges of human perception, SpectreVision co-founder and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah joins acclaimed writer Cecil Castellucci (Shade the Changing Woman) and rising star Chloe Stawski (Sapphic Pulp) for our fourth incursion into the unifying forces behind startling phenomena — UFOs, hauntings, anomalous animals, and more — with a tale of deep-black government experiments, psychic research, and destiny among the stars…
Adeline is a lonely, lost aspiring artist. Raised in foster care and languishing in the cruelty and ignorance of turn-of-the-millenium America, her life is without direction or higher purpose. But when she’s recruited by a mysterious program that seeks to study her latent telepathic abilities inside a deep-underground military base, she starts down a path she was maybe always traveling… a path that reaches a major crossroads when she meets the ethereal Lyriana and finds her long-lost spiritual connection in the process. But when Lyriana suddenly disappears, Adeline must question the true nature of her new masters… and test the limits of her abilities to see if love truly is eternal.

THE NEW GODS ENTER THE FRAY! Who will the New Gods side with? Will they ally with the vampires and heroes against Darkseid? Or will they decide that all vampires are a scourge to existence? Their decision will set the stage for an explosive conclusion that will determine the fate of the planet!
In advance of Comic Con International 2025 in San Diego, CA, Oni Press and SpectreVision – the production company run by partners Elijah Wood, Daniel Noah, and Lawrence Inglee – have revealed more details about High Strangeness. The projected announced in 2023 is a five-part experiment in comic book storytelling inspired by first-hand accounts of real paranormal encounters within the dimly lit borderlands of human experience where overlapping phenomena like UFOs, hauntings, cryptid sightings, and inexplicable synchronicities seem to indicate a higher, unseen order of reality…
A decade ago, Daniel Noah – writer, producer, director, and co-founder of SpectreVision, was a typical skeptic … until an awe-inspiring and unexplainable encounter at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado (the haunted hotel that inspired The Shining) left him questioning the verifiable existence of paranormal phenomenon. In the ensuing years, Noah has documented and logged hundreds of otherworldly encounters spanning the superspectrum of “high strangeness” that connects sightings of objects in the sky to haunted places and other perplexing manifestations that seem to extend like fingers from a hidden hand.
SpectreVision is teaming with Oni Press and a mind-bending cast of premier comics storytellers – including superstars Chris Condon, Dave Chisholm, Zac Thompson, Noah Bailey, Christopher Cantwell, Valeria Burzo, Cecil Castellucci, Chloe Stawski, and Christian Ward. The five ad-free, prestige-format issues will interlock to reveal an ambitious, dimension-spanning finale informed by Noah’s own real-life glimpses of nonhuman intelligence.
In the first double-sized, 40-page chapter debuting this October: Noah joins co-writer Chris Condon and artist Dave Chisholm for an unexpected encounter with the enigmatic Men in Black in 1967 as magazine writer Harry Kean is dispatched to rural Indiana to investigate the sudden disappearance of Becky Plume, a local teenager who stepped into the national spotlight with staggering photographic evidence of a recent UFO sighting. Frustrated to leave his developing stories in Chicago—and the wife he’s hoping to win back—Harry sets off to expose a hoax but instead finds himself in a labyrinth of high strangeness involving a missing girl, her boyfriend, a UFO, and some mysterious black-clad visitors circling at the perimeter of a mystery more vast than Harry could possibly imagine.
Each ad-free installment of High Strangeness will be packaged in Oni’s deluxe prestige format with cardstock covers, upgraded paper quality, and 40 pages of content – including a feature-length essay by podcaster and researcher Jim Perry on the historical facts and documentary evidence underpinning the phenomena detailed in each issue.
