In the upcoming Redcoat #14, Geoff Johns, Bryan Hitch, Andrew Currie, Brad Anderson, and Rob Leigh will use the book as a prelude to the upcoming First Ghost series by Johns, Brad Meltzer, and Gene Ha.
In the year 1814, where Washington D.C. is under siege by the British army, and the White House is engulfed in flames, Immortal British soldier Simon Pure witnesses history burning before his eyes—and comes face to face with the man responsible for lighting the match. But when Simon is blamed for the attack, his mission takes a shocking turn…
The upcoming First Ghost series will follow a newly elected United States President who moves into the White House with a young son. The two quickly discover the residence is more terrifying than cutthroat politicians and red tape.
“One of the joys of working in the historic timeline of The Unnamed, is that stories can be told across the canvas of American History, revealing secrets, introducing characters, and unlocking the greatest mysteries of the United States and those who not only founded it, but defined it,” said Johns in a press release from Image Comics. “In this issue, Simon Pure gets blamed for the burning of the White House in 1814… and is on a mission to prove his innocence. Or is he?”
Redcoat #14 arrives on August 20, 2025.
