Writer: Cullen Bunn
Artist: Brian Hurtt
Publisher: BOOM! Studios
Cover Price: $4.99
Release Date: May 10, 2023

After a deadly accident of which they were the only survivors, Lucas and Harmony Agate can see the dead-an overwhelming amount of the deceased, all with their own warnings, cries for help, and malevolence alike.

But Lucas and Harmony aren't the only ones with this ability; there are other nearly-deads, some of which have malicious motivations...
