TEASER: What is Speakeasy & What Have Nathan Edmondson & Mitch Gerads Gotten Themselves Into?

Recently, our friends at Broken Frontier ran a very curious interview with writer Nathan Edmondson and artist Mitch Gerads about an upcoming project, referred to as “Project Omaha.”  It was clear that there was more to this than the interview let on, including the actual title of the book, so we did some digging.  As you know, earlier this week we talked to Edmondson about his work on Grifter #1, during that time, when Edmondson wasn’t looking, we “swiped” some documents related to Project Omaha and today we’re blowing the lid on it:

Once word spread that we had gotten our hands on these documents, well, let’s say it’s no coincedence that they quickly announced more information about this title, revealing one word: Speakeasy. But just WHAT or WHO is Speakeasy? We’re working on finding out soon as we’ve got a lead on that Gerads fellow, who can be elusive. So stay tuned!

Comments

  1. Even though we know absolutely nothing about this, just looking at that poster and the talent involved, I’d say there is about a 100% chance this will be AMAZING.

  2. Could be fun, and I’m always a fan of marketing like this…

  3. Is anyone going to reference the hook?

    “A Silencer Speaks Louder than Words”

    Are you kidding me?! That is an instant classic. Some hollywood firm is going to buy the rights to this book based on the pre-release promo poster alone

  4. I’m intrigued.

  5. nice, any documents that has black outs in them are always interesting

  6. People should get ready for Gerads to blow up. He’s got chops. Loved his work on his creator owned book, Johnny Recon, and think his colors on Starborn are a stand-out. Not to mention he’s a great creator to meet in person. Bought some art off of him at SpringCon in Minnesota. Anyone who hasn’t seen his work yet should pick up the recent Doctor Who annual that just dropped. Hoping Speakeasy helps both of these creators blow up. They deserve it.
