"Starts creepy and slowly ratchets up the dread until the last page." -Newsarama In a future where our solar system has been colonized by wealthy elites, interstellar bounty hunters Dagmar, Rick, and Jules follow a missing girl's trail to a cult on Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon. When they arrive, the intrepid bounty hunters discover the cultists have provoked a terrifying force. This ghost story in space reunites comics' king of macabre Steve Niles with his longtime collaborator Christopher Mitten, whose stylish mix of grit and flow matches Steve's sharp characterizations and taste for screams.

"The true beauty of The Disciples rests in its haunting relatability. All humans in space are just a moment away from insignificance, and Niles and Company make sure you can feel it...we're forced to confront all of the terrifying truths we otherwise avoid in the safety of our terrestrial trappings." -Doom Rocket
