Dark Horse Comics announced the release of Barstow, a new horror-comedy series from David Ian McKendry, Rebekah McKendry, and Tyler Jenkins.
At the center of the Mojave Desert, at the crossroads between hell and gone, lies Barstow.
Agent Miranda Diaz is in this godforsaken land on the trail of a missing agent.
He’s a man she’s never met, and yet her name was the only clue he left behind. Something dark…something demonic…lurks beneath this oddball town, but can Miranda unravel the mystery before all hell breaks loose?
“As avid horror comic book readers, we are elated to be working on our first comic book series with the legendary Dark Horse Comics,” said the McKendrys in a press release from Dark Horse Comics. “This whole experience has been a dream come true!
“We first had the idea for Barstow while traveling very late on Sunday evening from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. We fell in love with the wild stretch of road between the two cities, especially the area surrounding the Mojave Desert and all the towns in between. Though we used the name Barstow, our town in the series is an amalgam of all the quirky desert ‘burgs we have encountered in that area.”
Barstow, a four-issue mini-series, is scheduled to arrive on November 20, 2024.
