Jeff Lemire has revealed the next chapter in The Bone Orchard universe is coming this September and it’s called Ten Thousand Black Feathers. Following the excellent The Passageway, Lemire, Andrea Sorrentino, and Dave Stewart continue to build out their shared horror universe and is now available to pre-order at comic shops.
“The Passageway introduces readers to the Bone Orchard and now with Ten Thousand Black Feathers we dig in and really start to explore this new universe,” said Lemire. “This is a story of friendship, coming of age and imagination that is equal parts horrific, mysterious and heart wrenching.”
So what’s Ten Thousand Black Feathers about?
Trish and Jackie are best friends and avid gamers. But when the line between reality and their fantasy world is blurred by an evil darkness, can they be the heroes of their own story?
Sorrentino added: “Ten Thousand Black Feathers will be the second installment of our descent into the Bone Orchard Mythos world and it’s a dark mystery that influenced (unfortunately, for the worst) the lives of the two women for more than 20 years. The way the story is laid out—told between present and a mysterious past—gave me the chance to play with styles in a way that will be new to readers of The Passageway. Can’t wait for readers to pick up the first issue this September!”
