Andy Biersack of Black Veil Brides has had an extremely busy 2018 since his role in American Satan last year.
Black Veil Brides dropped their new album Vale, but once the band is done touring Andy Biersack is going on another solo venture again. Read on…
CelebNMusic247.com reports that Andy Biersack will focus on a new record to coincide with the release of his new graphic novel, both of which share the title, The Ghost of Ohio in 2019.
If you want to see Black Veil Brides Monster Energy’s Aftershock in Sacramento may be your only chance to see the rock bank. Andy Biersack will be taking some time to do another solo project that will coincide with the release of his new graphic novel
The artwork for The Ghost of Ohio was created by Eryck Donovan (Batman), has now been revealed below.
Andy Biersack had this to say about his upcoming project:
I am so excited to finally be able to share the news about The Ghost of Ohio graphic novel and upcoming solo record of the same name and inspired by the comic book story.
He adds:
The truth is that I would never have discovered my love of rock music without my passion for comic books and characters like Batman and Spawn, which ultimately lead me to larger than life bands like KISS and The Misfits. To be able to combine my love of the graphic novel medium with a concept record is a dream come true and something I have wanted to do for many years. Working with the Z2 Comics team and alongside Scott Tuft and Eryk Donovan to bring this dream to reality has been an incredible process.
The story takes place in southwestern Ohio and spans across historical eras from the 1800s to modern day. The Ghost of Ohio is a tale of loneliness, redemption and strength and I hope both the album and book capture that tone while giving people some fun entertainment to escape into!

The story is an original concept by Biersack and he worked with Z2 Comics’ Josh Frankel and Sridhar Reddy as well as with writer Scott Tuft (Swamp Thing, Severed).
Pre-orders will be announced in the future and the graphic novel is expected to be released in mid-2019.
It sounds really interesting and we can’t wait to read it.
