ANDERSON & LEIGH JOIN GHOST MACHINE ON EXCLUSIVE BASIS

 Ghost Machine announced today that colorist Brad Anderson and letterer Rob Leigh have officially joined the ranks of its exclusive creator roster. Globally recognized as absolute masters of their craft, Anderson and Leigh have already been integral to Ghost Machine’s success since the company’s official launch at New York Comic-Con in October 2023. Anderson and Leigh have joined fellow Ghost Machine co-owners and co-creators Jason Fabok, Gary Frank, Bryan Hitch, Geoff Johns, Lamont Magee, Francis Manapul, Brad Meltzer, Ivan Reis, Peter Snejbjerg, Peter J. Tomasi, and Maytal Zchut, who are all fully exclusive to Ghost Machine for their comic book work once projects already committed to have been completed.

“I am extremely fortunate to be enjoying a long career in comics—a childhood dream come true. And while I’ve achieved many goals, what had been missing was the ability to plot my own course and to have a meaningful stake in the work created. When Geoff contacted me describing his vision of a company where all properties are owned and controlled by the talent—creators not only at the apex of the field, but who I admire and respect on a personal level—I couldn’t board the GHOST MACHINE ship fast enough!” - Rob Leigh

“It’s hard to put into words what it means to me to be a part of a group such as this. I’ve looked up to and have been inspired by these creators for years, and to be partners in Ghost Machine with such professionals and entrepreneurial wizards, who I call friends, is incredibly special. I value the trust they put into me and my work, and to be recognized by such giants in the industry means more than I can say. I am so excited, not only for us, but for the fans to see, and fall in love with the characters and stories Ghost Machine is creating.” - Brad Anderson

Anderson and Leigh’s quality was on full display in Ghost Machine’s recent triple sell-out of its debut issues Geiger #1, Redcoat #1 and Rook: Exodus #1. Image Comics, which publishes all Ghost Machine titles, rushed all three first issues back to print, with second issues following this May.
