Ancestral Recall

In Ancestral Recall (2025–present, AHOY Comics), a five-issue miniseries from the publisher known for its sharp, socially-conscious genre storytelling, a young woman discovers she can relive the memories of her ancestors—and that their buried secrets might hold the key to confronting a looming, modern-day threat. The series is written by Peter Milligan, a veteran of boundary-pushing comics, and features art by Leila Leiz, bringing a visceral, emotional depth to this exploration of legacy, identity, and the weight of history. It matters as a taut, character-driven thriller that uses its speculative premise to examine how the past can both haunt and empower us.
