It's the third issue of the ongoing spy-fi anthology, featuring indie artists from around the world! 


The clandestine organization called GHOST (Global Hierarchy Of Secret Tactics) combats threats with bad intentions: rogue robots, intergalactic mobsters, demonic beasts from the Netherworld, and fashion obsessed terrorists. This is a collection of episodic, standalone stories that read well by themselves but build to a greater whole. They’re all set in the same world and feature a cast of recurring characters. It’s the wildly imaginative work of up-and-coming artists Christian J Meesey (Meesimo), John Burkett, Chris Anderson, Barry Tan, Dave Grom, Rick Lopez, Chris Fason, Dakota Alexander, Danny Nicholas, Dave Praetorius, Miguel Galindo, Jason Foster, and Sam J Royale, all from stories written by Rocko Jerome.
