Synopsis "Plague House"

HOUSES AREN'T THE ONLY THING THAT ARE HAUNTED. . . . Architect of terror Michael W. Conrad (Wonder Woman, In Bloom) and 2024 Ringo Award winner Dave Chisholm (Miles Davis and the Search for the Sound) launch a deep and disturbing excursion into 21st centuryhorror with a new kind of tale that will rebuild the four walls of the American ghost story from the foundation up . . .

Thirteen years ago, Orin McCabe was a family man living a privileged life in the California suburbs. Today, he's condemned to death row for murdering his entire family in an unexpected fit of hammer-wielding brutality. In the aftermath of his heinous crime, it's fallen to a trio of eclectic, but dedicated, ghost huntersJacob, the holy man; Holland, the skeptic; and their leader, Del, a true believer in the occult and worlds beyondto surveil the abandoned McCabe home in search of proof for the existence of the undead . . . and whatever supernatural source may have possibly fueled McCabe's inhuman massacre. But this ill-matched and uneasy squad of investigators is about to discover something much more terrifying than any ordinary spirit. . . . Something much more pernicious, much more contagious, that if not contained, could take full advantage of America's unquenchable appetite for violence and deliver a plague of blood unto us all . . .

Collects issues #14 of Plague House in a twisting tale of horror that's as blood-soaked as the ground you stand on.

Michael Conrad es un guionista y escritor estadounidense conocido por su trabajo en la industria del cómic contemporáneo, especialmente dentro del catálogo de DC Comics. Antes de dedicarse plenamente a la escritura, desarrolló una trayectoria ligada al arte, la música y la cultura alternativa, influencias que luego trasladó a sus historias mediante un tono introspectivo y emocionalmente intenso. Su estilo suele explorar la identidad, el trauma y las relaciones humanas dentro de narrativas de superhéroes y ficción oscura.

Ha trabajado en series como Wonder Woman, Batgirls y Nightwing, colaborando frecuentemente con Becky Cloonan. En estas obras ayudó a redefinir personajes clásicos con enfoques más humanos y psicológicos, manteniendo al mismo tiempo el dinamismo propio del género superheroico. Además de su labor en grandes editoriales, Conrad también ha participado en proyectos independientes, donde ha explorado propuestas más experimentales y personales. Su carrera destaca por combinar sensibilidad narrativa con una mirada moderna sobre héroes tradicionales.
