WHY WE LOVE IT: You know all those conspiracy theories you hear about? Like
how the Jonestown Massacre was a failed MKULTRA experiment by the government, or
how Lee Harvey Oswald was trained and brainwashed to be an assassin? Well, what
if some of those were true? Deep State is a dream (nightmare?) come true for
conspiracy theory nuts like us here at BOOM! WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: With
Luther Strode, Dead Body Road, and Spread, Justin Jordan has become one of the
eminent voices in hardhitting, intelligent, original comics, and Ariela
Kristantina (Death of Wolverine) brings her unique, idiosyncratic style that has
made her a breakout talent. If you're even remotely interested in
conspiracy theory stories from comics like Detective Comics and XFiles to films
like Enemy of the State and Three Days of the Condor, you'll be gripped by
Deep State! WHAT IT'S ABOUT: John Harrow doesn't exist, and his job
is to make sure that other things don't exist, too. At any given time, the
government is running dozens of black book operations, experiments that
aren't on any official record and are never acknowledged to exist. Most of
the time, they go as expected and the public is never the wiser. John
Harrow's job is to handle them when they don't, and do anything to
make sure the government's secrets stay just that-secret. Collects
issues #14. Newly optioned by 20th Century Fox TV!
