Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, read J. Torres and Eric Kim’s seminal LOVE AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE—collected from start to finish for the first time in one deluxe hardcover edition, remastered with new colors and letters, and featuring brand-new cover art and exclusive bonus content. 

Joel hates Korea. When he agreed to teach there in an effort to pay off his student loans faster, he had no idea how much he’d hate it. He can’t wait to go back home to Canada and return to normal life. His year-long contract is almost over and then he’ll finally be free. But Joel’s life is about to go from dark dreams to cotton-candy kisses, and it’s all because of Hana, the new school secretary. Maybe this job isn’t so bad with his dream girl beside him. (If he works up the nerve to talk to her, that is.) The very sight of Hana sends Joel flying straight to cloud nine, but won’t another year in Korea send him crashing back down?

Traveling back to Seoul in the 2000s, and perfect for fans of K-drama romcoms, fans old and new can relive Joel and Hana’s love story—now in color!

GHOST PROJEKT – NEW EDITION (Softcover)

Coming August 28th, 2026

ONI PRESS PROUDLY PRESENTS THE RETURN OF A MODERN SUPERNATURAL CLASSIC!

From acclaimed writer Joe Harris (X-Files, Snowfall) and Eisner Award–winning artist Steve Rolston (Queen & Country, Emiko Superstar) comes a brand-new collected edition of their chilling post–Cold War-era thriller GHOST PROJEKT.

In the frozen depths of Siberia lies a long-forgotten Soviet research facility. Abandoned at the end of the Cold War, it once housed a terrifying experiment—something powerful, something dangerous . . . and something that refuses to stay buried. When the weapon disappears into the hands of thieves who don’t fully understand what they’ve unleashed, US weapons inspector Will Haley is sent to investigate. Teaming up with Russian federal agent Anya Romanova, the two uncover a dark legacy of secrets, science, and spirits that neither nation ever intended to see the light of day.

But the past does not die quietly—and in the shadows of old wars, ghosts still walk…

Ghost Projekt #1The Cold War brought us tension between two super powers.  Both the United States and Soviet Union delved into super secret projects that would give them the edge in case of war.

Today, the tension has somewhat thawed and the Soviet Union is no more.  The legacy though of that time may be the plentiful weapons that remain improperly protected and what may happen if they were to fall into the wrong hands.  Loose weapons of mass destruction is a very real threat.

A new series coming in March, produced by Oni Press, deals with this topic.  Ghost Projekt is written by Joe Harris with art by Steve Rolston and colors by Dean Trippe.

Russia is often remembered from the shadow cast during the Cold War-era when every stranger was a spy, but now that the Cold War is long over, some things left behind from that era may not stay lost. An abandoned Soviet research facility somewhere in Siberia has been home to a strange and dangerous weapon that is now in the hands of thieves claiming it for their own. U.S. weapons inspector Will Haley has been assigned to find out what dangers the weapon poses and with the help of Russian agent Anya Romanova they will find the answers, but it will be far from easy.

You can check out your own 13 page preview at http://www.onipress.com/blog/?p=1198.

Story: This is a nice noirish story with good tension.  The first issue mostly sets up the story with much of it just giving you pieces of the mystery and allowing you to draw your won conclusions.  Some of the dialogue is in Russian with no translation, only adding to the mystery.  It’s also nice to see a story drawn from a very real and scary situation.  Rating: 9.5

Art: The art is definitely a very interesting style.  It doesn’t quite fit the setting but at the same time doesn’t distract from the series.  It reminds me of what you might find in Resurrection, but much tighter in the pencils.  It’s a decent style that helps tell the story and doesn’t hinder.   Rating: 8

Overall: While this first preview issue wasn’t complete, the 24 pages I read were very entertaining.  The first issue is very much a set up for the series with a slow build.  I’d definitely recommend making sure your store pulls you an issue to check out.  I think you’ll be entertained.  Overall Rating: 9

Recommendation: Buy

Release: March 10, 2010

Oni Press provided Graphic Policy with an advance copy of this issue for FREE for review.
