Book Synopsis
Forbes’ Best Graphic Novels of 2018
WIRED Magazine’s Favorite End-of-Year Books, 2018

A brand-new ongoing horror series from the acclaimed best-selling creative team of Old Man Logan and Green Arrow!

The lives of a reclusive young man obsessed with a conspiracy in the city's trash and a washed-up Catholic priest arriving in a small town full of dark secrets become intertwined around the mysterious legend of The Black Barn—an otherworldly building alleged to have appeared in both the city and the small town throughout history, bringing death and madness in its wake.

Rural mystery and urban horror collide in this character-driven meditation on obsession, mental illness, and faith that Mark Millar (Hitgirl) called his "personal pick as the best comic of 2018!" Also featuring a variant cover gallery from some of comics' best artists, including Cliff Chiang (PAPER GIRLS), Jock (WYTCHES), Skottie Young (I HATE FAIRYLAND), and more!

Trade Review
"Though Lemire is one of the busiest writers in the industry right now, the sheer volume, diversity, and high quality of his output is remarkable. He doesn’t lose a step here nor does Sorrentino, who is composing here at peak level too... I left the experience of Gideon Falls more than ready to see how the mystery of this odd town plays out in the next chapter." —The Comics Beat

"Saturated with a horrific sense of anxiety." -Entertainment Weekly

"Combines avant-garde graphic treatments with outstanding writing to create a genuine tale of terror." -Boing Boing

"It's a thriller, it's horror, it's literary, and it's also something truly unique." —Newsarama

"A dark, brooding piece of evocative horror blessedly short on exposition and long on landscapes, ambiance and feelings." —The Oregonian
