The series follows Cole Turner, a newly recruited agent who discovers that belief itself can reshape reality, and that the government has been managing which conspiracy theories become materially true. Issue #2 deepens that premise as Turner's suppressed childhood memories surface, pulling him further into the Department's unsettling mandate. This is also the issue that introduces the Starface Man in his first full appearance, a key early entry point for the character within the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis copy is Cover B, featuring variant cover art by Christian Ward. Ward's cover work brings a psychedelic, otherworldly color palette that contrasts with Simmonds' interior linework, and the two styles together give the early issues of this series a visual identity that set it apart from other Image launches of the period. The series went on to second and third printings across its opening issues, reflecting the sustained readership the title built from its debut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal MSRP\u003c\/strong\u003e: $3.99\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries Title\u003c\/strong\u003e: The Department of Truth\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIssue\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover\u003c\/strong\u003e: B (Christian Ward Variant)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover Artist\u003c\/strong\u003e: Christian Ward\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWriter\u003c\/strong\u003e: James Tynion IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e: Martin Simmonds\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Image Comics\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Year\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrinting\u003c\/strong\u003e: First Printing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariant Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cover B Variant\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Issue\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st full appearance of the Starface Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"disclaimer\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*PHOTO DISCLAIMER:\u003c\/strong\u003e All photos are of the actual items, unless marked as pre-order.
