Deprog is a new detective thriller from Tina Horn (SfSx) and Lisa Sterle (Witchblood) that' s John Constantine meets Jessica Jones with a kinky Midsommar twist. Meet Tate Debs, a hardboiled hard drinking leather loving dyke detective with an office in the back of Los Angeles' s last video store. Tate specializes in rescuing and deprogramming people from abusive groups with extreme beliefs — like the one Tate herself escaped, that believed in inter-dimensional travel and taboo ritual sex. When a femme named Vera, who may just be fatale, hires Tate to infiltrate a group of mystical hippies out in the desert, she must decide if Vera' s charms are worth being re-traumatized. Soon, Tate must face her past out of devotion to the femme she may be falling for... and a single minded drive to avenge her family.

In issue 3, with Les going undercover in the Adaptogentic desert bathhouse, Tate and Vera are staked out in a sleazy motel. As Les attempts to resist seductive hippie girls, Vera finally learns the backstory of Tate's cult upbringing, which is weirder than anyone could have possibly imagined.

“ DEPROG #1 takes the best aspects of the hard-boiled detective narrative— memorable characters navigating intriguing conflicts— and injects a tantalizing dose of queer erotica that will leave you jonesing for more.”

— Jeremy Holt (Made in Korea, Gatsby, What If?... Venom)
