BLACK SIGHT is a glimpse into a dark world.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary The forthcoming ComiXology series Black Sight dives into real-world CIA conspiracies from the 1960s. The latest offering from ComiXology's Originals line, Black Sight follows an idealistic young woman as she is plunged headfirst into a nightmarish labyrinth of conspiracies and lies — with some very real world origins.
Screen Rant is pleased to bring fans a first look at the new series by writer Stephanie Phillips and artist Conor Boyle. Black Sight #1 — lettered by Tom Napolitano and with a cover by Dave Johnson — opens with Alex Greer having just arrived in Amsterdam in 1964. Her mother, the sole surviving member of her family, recently passed away, leaving Alex lost and confused. Deciding that she does not want to live her whole life in the American Midwest, she decides to see the world.
Blamed for the crime, Alex is hauled off to prison, but there is clearly more going on than meets the eye. Mysterious people are watching Alex, intending to use her in a horrifying experiment. Black Sight’s first two issues will also feature a backup story by Daleyna Abril and Marco Fodera that will shed further light on the book’s characters. Check out some exclusive preview pages below.Black Sight Has a Horrifying Real World Origin Horrifyingly, Black Sight is grounded in reality.
Phillips and Boyle have created a spectacular horror comic in Black Sight, perfectly invoking the claustrophobic approach the creative team was aiming for. The opening page, with Alex in a panic, sets the stage for the horrors that follow. This opening sequence is contrasted with Alex in a club, enjoying herself.
Black Sight is One of the Year's Best Horror Comics And yet what makes Black Sight truly terrifying is its basis in real world history. The nefarious doings in Black Sight are not the actions of a demented super-villain, or even a foreign government. Instead, the enemy is the CIA, an agency of the American government, who are conducting experiments on their own citizens. There is documented evidence of this happening all through the late 20th century, particularly in programs like MKUltra.
