PORTLAND, Ore. 06/20/2025 — The bestselling conspiracy thriller series The Department of Truth by James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds will celebrate its fifth anniversary with a special extra-length #0 issue hitting shelves this September from Image Comics in collaboration with Tiny Onion.
A new day has dawned at the Department of Truth. Lee Harvey Oswald and his ruthless new recruits are ready to do whatever it takes to make the agency great again. Don’t miss this critical turning point in the Eisner-nominated series.
This special issue will also see the King of Rock n’ Roll take the stage again with the first of a three-part backup story featuring guest writer Scott Snyder (Absolute Batman) and horror artist extraordinaire Joshua Hixson (The Deviant) that will delve into the secret history of Elvis Presley.
“Martin and I are bowled over by the support The Department of Truth continues to receive from readers and retailers," said Tynion IV. "Five years feels like a lifetime in comics, so we knew we needed to do something BIG to celebrate this milestone and reward everyone who helped us get here. That means a brand-new cast of characters moving fast and breaking things within the Department, a dangerous new era for Cole Turner and the rest of our regular crew, and welcoming our first-ever guest creative team for a very special back-up story. Scott and Josh are going to have everyone all shook up when they reveal what REALLY happened to Elvis Presley—and what the Department of Truth had to do with it…”
