ULTRASOUND
In this graphic novel, which has been adapted into a feature
film starring Vincent Kartheiser (Mad Men), Glen and
Cyndi become unwitting test subjects in a mind-control
experiment after a strange sexual encounter. They search
for answers as their own memories become tools for
manipulation.
Driving home from a wedding late one night during a heavy storm, out
of cell range, Glen blows out his tires. He knocks on the door of the only
house he sees and is greeted by an uncomfortably friendly middle-aged
man, Arthur, and his attractive younger wife, Cyndi. The strange couple
pours him a drink, and then more drinks, followed by odd confessions
and an unexpected offer that Glen can't refuse. Where Ultrasound zigs and
zags from there is into a dizzying plot involving mind control, government
secrets, gaslighting, and political intrigue that is always one step ahead
of the reader. Stechschulte's brilliant use of color and mastery of comics
storytelling yields a breathtaking puzzlebox of a sci fi thriller - the moment you
finish, you will want to go back and reread Ultrasound from the start.
Ultrasound has also been adapted into an acclaimed feature film directed by
Robert Schroeder and starring Vincent Kartheiser (Mad Men), from a screenplay by
Stechschulte. The film earned raves at the 2021 Tribeca Film Fest and is scheduled
for theatrical release in March 2022 and will premiere streaming on Hulu in June.
