Brian Cunningham says "Ghost Machine reimagines the original Image Comics model with fresh and intriguing new characters that readers will fall in love with. I couldn't be more excited to join this monster roster of talent, most of whom I've worked with over the years. In a way, it's like a family reunion!"
