 **A gripping and provocative graphic novel that takes a hard look at sex and violence, and the very different ways we obsessively watch both.** Hundreds of years in the future, New York City is haunted by many ghosts, including a voyeuristic woman who died in our present day and a mysterious gun-toting man from the distant past. Normally solo travelers, these two specters meet and travel around the world together, bearing witness to society's forward march toward decay. Readers won't be able to look away as they watch with dark fascination how SPECTATORS explores the fine line between living and watching others live. Explicitly sexy and shockingly violent, this lavishly hand-painted epic is a thought-provoking, metaphysical masterpiece and the most ambitious collaboration yet between _Pride of Baghdad_ artist Niko Henrichon and _Saga_ writer Brian K. Vaughan. **Brian K. Vaughan** is the Eisner and Hugo Award-winning writer/co-creator of multiple critically acclaimed series including _Saga, Paper Girls_, and _Y: The Last Man_, as well as the upcoming graphic novel _Spectators_ with artist Niko Henrichon, who he last collaborated with on _Pride of Baghdad_. Vaughan lives with his family in Los Angeles, where he occasionally dabbles in film and television, though he’s always happiest making comics.
