New Comic Series Announcement: Jeremy Haun has teamed up with artist Mike Tisserand to launch his brand‑new horror comic series Murder Podcast under their creator‑owned imprint Ignition Press, co-founded by Haun himself. The twisted premise revolves around a seemingly innocent true‑crime podcast that resurfaces mysteriously — and those who listen become the next victims. The first issue is set to debut on September 4, 2025, with pre‑orders available through Penguin Random House Publisher Services starting June 20.

This announcement comes ahead of San Diego Comic‑Con, where Murder Podcast will be the first of eight planned issues launching as part of “Ignition Sequence: SDCC” (see image below).
Haun expressed how this project reflects his lifelong love of horror, saying:
“I love horror. Plain and simple. Growing up I was terrified of all those VHS tape covers in the horror section of the local video store. That fear led to fascination…and maybe a little obsession with the genre. I’ve spent most of my writing career telling my own horror stories, just hoping to feel a bit of that childhood fear again,” said co-creator and writer Jeremy Haun. “Murder Podcast is the perfect example of that. It takes a look at our culture’s obsession with true crime and then turns it on its head. It’s been a joy of a project—maybe my favorite thing that I’ve written. Telling this story with artist Mike Tisserand has been an absolute, horrific joy—a bloody good time.”
