About the series
In this four-issue series from Yen Press (2007–2008), a young aspiring journalist discovers she can see and communicate with ghosts, using her eerie ability to uncover the truth behind the stories she's assigned. A blend of supernatural mystery and everyday high-school drama, Alice on Deadlines offers a fresh, character-driven take on the classic "teen with a secret power" premise. Its compact run and distinctive premise make it a fondly remembered entry in the mid-2000s indie-comics landscape.
