Backways follows Anna Merrick as she plunges ever deeper into an unseen nation riddled with madness and magic – a nation that exists alongside our own in the nooks and crannies of reality and collectively called the Backways. When Anna loses someone in the Backways, she ventures inside to retrieve her friend, even if it means unleashing something terrifying in the process.

"This is my second series with AfterShock, and I've really enjoyed working with them,” Jordan said in a press release. “They've helped me tell the stories I wanted to tell better than I could tell them on my own, which is what I am always looking for in a creative partner."

Backways #1 is a publication of AfterShock that will be available for purchase at comic book shops on Dec. 20, 2017.
