Blackwater (2022) Jeannette Arroyo, Ren Graham

Tony is a track star and popular.

His best friend is an asshole.

His dad doesn’t know–or seem to care–what’s happening in Tony’s life.

Eli is the weird kid, who often misses school.

And who sees ghosts.

Despite being warned, Tony goes into the woods, and ends up bitten by something.

The ghost Eli keeps seeing tries to help, but it’s hard to explain to someone they shouldn’t go into the woods because a ghost says it’s a bad idea.

This is very YA, and wasn’t for me, but you can find out for yourself and check out the comic online.
