Suggested by hydeincarnate

Cole Turner has studied conspiracy theories all his life, but he isn’t prepared for what happens when he discovers that all of them are true: the JFK Assassination, Flat Earth Theory, Bigfoot, Mothman, and so much worse. One organization has been covering them up for generations, controlling the narrative for what they claim is the greater good. What is the deep, dark secret behind the Department of Truth—and will learning it destroy Cole’s life from the inside out? Based on the best-selling comic book from James Tynion IV (Batman, Something is Killing the Children) and artist Martin Simmonds, this is a story that would be best suited to a long-form series.
