Ghost Machine Reveals Blackest Night Homage Cover For New Geoff Johns/Ivan Reis Comic

As a comics enthusiast with over two decades of reading under my belt, I can confidently say that this upcoming Ghost Machine release, Hyde Street #1, has me absolutely thrilled! The Blackest Night homage cover is an exquisite nod to one of the most memorable runs in recent comic history, and having Ivan Reis, Danny Miki, and Brad Anderson reunite for this project is a dream come true.


Today, Image Comics and Ghost Machine unveiled a special 1:100 cover tribute to Hyde Street #1. This retail incentive homage variant features artwork by Ivan Reis, Danny Miki, and Brad Anderson, honoring Reis’s own cover for the debut issue of Blackest Night #1, penned by Geoff Johns. The variant recreates one of Reis’s iconic covers and preludes his collaboration with Johns on the forthcoming Hyde Street release next month. This time, Nekron – the skeletal Green Lantern villain – is replaced by a skull wearing X-ray specs labeled “Mr. X-Ray.

The artwork inside Hyde Street is colored by Brad Anderson, inked by Danny Miki, and lettered by Rob Leigh.

In a statement, Reis expressed that the special edition of Hyde Street was designed to honor not only our previous partnership but also our devoted readers who made Blackest Night shine. He continued by saying that when they started brainstorming ideas for Hyde Street, their thoughts immediately turned to Blackest Night due to its eerie horror ambiance – a setting that he and Johns were eager to explore again. Moreover, both of them are thrilled to have fans experience the journey through Hyde Street with us as we uncover it together, praising Ivan’s extraordinary work on this variant cover.

Here’s how Ghost Machine describes Hyde Street:

In every urban setting and rural byway, straying from your moral path might lead you to Hyde Street. Be cautious with whom you confide in and what actions you take, for the repercussions could make even death appear inviting. Meet Mr. X-Ray, Pranky the World’s Perilous Scout, Miss Goodbody, and others who are ready to amuse, terrify, and send shivers down your spine. What lies within them and on Hyde Street remains a secret only they hold. For now.

If you’re a fan of the chilling tales spun by W. Maxwell Prince & Martín Morazzo in “Ice Cream Man” and enjoy the timeless stories of Stephen King, then you might also appreciate “Hyde Street”.

is the perfect tale of terror to haunt readers’ shelves this Halloween.
