THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH #8 BEGINS SINISTER NEW STORY ARC THIS APRIL

The bestselling Image Comics series The Department of Truth by James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds will kick off a new story arc this April. This chilling new chapter will begin with The Department of Truth #8 and will seed new mysteries for readers in search of the Truth.

Cole Turner thought he joined the right side of the war for the Truth. But now that he’s learning more about Lee Harvey Oswald’s tenure leading the Department, he’s not so sure. The answers Cole seeks are hidden behind a pair of unsolvable riddles: WHO is the Fictional Woman, and WHAT does she want from him?

Interest in the series has reached an all time high as news of The Department of Truth having been picked up by Sister—best known for producing HBO’s Chernobyl—spread industrywide.

Upon its launch, The Department of Truth sold over 100K copies—an impressive number which snowballed with multiple reprints, tastemaker praise, and critical acclaim from nearly every major news outlet, from Entertainment Weekly to Forbes.

In The Department of Truth, readers meet Cole Turner, a man who has studied conspiracy theories all his life—but never prepared to discover that all of them are true. From the JFK Assassination to Flat Earth Theory and Reptilian Shapeshifters, one organization has been covering them up for generations.

  1. I’m still kicking myself for not picking up issue one on day one. I should have, it’s Tynion and I enjoy his writing. I was worried was going to be an SJW nightmare. I grabbed issue 1 4th print and was pleasantly suprised.
