FIRST LOOK: Behold Doom, Damnation & Revenge in MINE IS A LONG, LONESOME GRAVE #1

From Creators Justin Jordan & Chris Shehan, the White-Knuckle Descent into Appalachian Horror Begins February 12th – Only from Oni Press


Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, is thrilled to reveal the first look inside MINE IS A LONG, LONESOME GRAVE #1! From acclaimed writer Justin Jordan (The Strange Talent of Luther Strode) and #1 best-selling artist Chris Shehan (House of Slaughter), this pitch-black Appalachian horror thriller will darken the doorsteps of comic shops everywhere on February 12th, 2025 with the doomed tale of Harley Creed – a reformed criminal struggling to lead a straight life when supernatural curse gives him seven days to live … and an endless list of hateful suspects to stalk through the criminal underground of his crumbling West Virginia stomping ground where magic and murder go hand in hand. . .

Harley Creed is a bad man. He used to be worse. A violent ex-con with a string of brutal crimes in his past, he only wanted one thing when he finally walked free from prison: to leave Briar Falls, WV, behind and disappear forever. But Harley’s hometown has a strange way of swallowing people whole—call it a consequence of the low-level folk magic that has permeated its darker corners for generations. And now that Harley has returned, pent-up vengeance for his past crimes is about to come roaring back. Somebody has put a hex on him—and Harley has seven days before he dies in twisted, screaming agony.

To reverse it, Harley must find and kill his unseen enemy before their curse can reap its terrible end. But in Briar Falls, there's no shortage of suspects—and Harley is coming for them all. If can't have peace, at least he can have revenge.

"Sad old men, revenge, witchcraft, and Appalachian folk magic – just know I'll be drawing all of this with a smile on my face the entire time,” said series artist Chris Shehan.

"I don't get an opportunity to do as much crime as I want…” says author Justin Jordan. “Wait, no, I mean I don't get a chance to do as much crime FICTION as I would like, so getting to do a crime book that is also a horror book, my other favorite genre, has been awesome. And getting to set it in Appalachia, where I'm from, is just icing on the very brutal cake.”


Nothing can stop MINE IS A LONG, LONESOME GRAVE #1 from getting even on February 12, 2025, in comic shops everywhere – featuring bare-knuckled covers by Chris Shehan (House of Slaughter), Matthew Roberts (Battle Pope), Kelsey Ramsay (Moon Dogs), Jeffrey Alan Love (Absolute Batman), and Jason Shawn Alexander (Killadelphia)!
