Netflix's Spectral Gets Comic Book Prequel Today

In December, Netflix released the movie Spectral about a group of soldier coming up against a supernatural presence in the field of battle.

But that's not where the story begins. Today, Legendary comics has released the prequel, Spectral: Ghosts of War, as a digital comic through comixology.

This official prequel graphic novel tells a new story of survival in the face of a weaponized force of phantoms known as 'spectrals.' When a war-torn city is overrun by a terrifying army of ghosts, a group of school-friends set out on a dangerous journey to uncover the truth behind their nightmares. Meanwhile, an advanced assault unit of near-future soldiers skirts the city's shadows on a search and rescue mission, finding themselves thrown into explosive conflict with an impossible enemy that can only be seen with specialized goggles that enable the wearer to look death in the eye. Are these attackers the ghosts the children seek? Or something much more sinister?

Spectral: Ghosts of War is written by Seamus Kevin Fahey (Battlestar Galactica), Sean Fahey (BlackJack Press) and with artwork by Zid (Kong: Skull Island) and is available now.
