This August 2017, Image Comics is launching an all-new four issue Codename Baboushka mission. Leading the series, entitled Ghost Station Zero, is writer Antony Johnston (Atomic Blonde) and artist Shari Chankhamma (The Fuse).

“Ghost Stations” – abandoned Soviet bases from the Cold War – are long forgotten and useless. Or are they? When an EON agent goes missing on the trail of a ghost station in the Swiss mountains, there is only one person to turn to. Mr. Clay calls on crime-boss-turned-blackmailed-international-superspy Baboushka to investigate. But what she finds is explosive!

“Fans already know that Baboushka is an all-action modern pulp heroine. But we hope people new to her adventures (especially fans of Atomic Blonde, ahem) will get on board the roller coaster ride of Ghost Station Zero, because we’re turning it up to 11, cutting the brake lines, and mixing our metaphors all over the place. New villains, new gadgets, new plots to take over the world…all in a day’s work for Baboushka, who of course looks fabulous while doing it,” shared Johnston.

“It’s been too long since the last arc, but I’m happy to be back with Baboushka and Antony again! This time, we get to see her in a lot more different environments, and with that, more opportunities to show what she’s capable of. This is a really action-packed arc with Baboushka constantly trying to get out of one tricky situation, just to get into another. And of course, we’ve got a lot more explosions. I’m getting pretty good at rendering explosions,” added Chankhamma.

Ghost Station Zero #1 will include a cover by Chankhamma (Diamond code: JUN170657) as well as one by Becky Cloonan (Diamond code: JUN170658). Both issues will arrive in comic book stores on August 2. The final order cutoff deadline for comics retailers is July 10.
