INTERSECT: METAMORPH
A new ongoing horror series by the writer of DC Comics’ long-running series Constantine, set in the real-world ruins of Detroit.
Detroit was a dead city, and now it’s on the verge of coming back to life. The factories were closed, the music studios were shuttered, and entire neighborhoods were going to seed. But now there are movements to reclaim the city, to experiment with it—urban renewal groups are planting crops in the urban center. Art collectives are converting warehouses into working spaces. And then one night, sixty thousand ghosts and demons decide to take it for themselves.
Intersect is the story of a photographer named Jason who is injured while covering the story of a cat- aclysmic mass-possession of Detroit—a derelict town to begin with, but now a literal ghost town. Half-possessed by the spirit of his dead fiancée, Jason struggles to survive and fight for his city while reconciling himself with the ghost of his lost love. Bodies shift and merge, warring with themselves. Blood rains from the skies. A child’s song is translated into toxic, thought-destroying whispers. Everything is changing. Everything is wrong. This is the world of Intersect.
A story of struggle and transformation, Intersect takes readers on an unforgettable journey—a quest for understanding and purpose in a city gone truly mad. Readers must discard all assumptions about horror. Intersect, with its luminous, fully painted artwork, walks the line between the beauti- ful and the grotesque, the sensual and the horrific.
