On Wednesday, February 4th, Oni Press is releasing HIGH STRANGENESS #4 (of 5)!

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 Chloé 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 . . .

Presented in an extra-sized and ad-free prestige format with cardstock covers, each 40-page issue of HIGH STRANGENESS also includes a brand-new nonfiction special feature into the documented, real-life history behind each interlocking chapter.

Here’s a look at this week’s new release from Oni Press on New Comic Book Day!

Adeline is a lonely, lost aspiring artist. Raised in foster care and languishing in the cruelty and ignorance of turn-of-the-millennium 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.
