PORTLAND, OR (March 15th, 2024)Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, is set to unveil a tantalizing glimpse into the next chapter of the critically acclaimed series NIGHT PEOPLE #2 (of 4). This eagerly awaited installment promises to plunge readers into the relentless intensity of a narrative crafted by literary icon Barry Gifford (Wild at Heart), red-hot writer Chris Condon (That Texas Blood), and Eisner Award-winning artist Alexandre Tefenkgi (The Good Asian).

In the Heart of the South

Set against the backdrop of New Orleans, NIGHT PEOPLE #2 delves into the gripping conflict surrounding abortion, embroiling brother and sister evangelical preachers in a battle of ideologies. Nestled on an otherwise serene street, the neighboring ministries of the Church, on the One Hand, and the Church, on the Other Hand, find themselves at the center of an ever-escalating rivalry. Yet, beneath the surface of this outward confrontation lies a long-held secret – the covert origins of Brother Dallas Salt and Sister Dilys Salt’s estrangement, threatening to erupt into scandal.

Amidst this simmering tension, a shadowy figure lurks in the wings, a fanatical female assassin whose silent machinations promise to bring the conflict to a violent crescendo. As the nation grapples with the polarizing debate over abortion, her actions take on a profoundly personal dimension, aiming to strike at the heart of a controversy that has divided communities and ignited passions across the country.
