Project Artifact: The Spear | The Institute for Creation Research


Project Artifact: The Spear

DALLAS, TX, September 9, 2025 — It’s finally here! Today marks the official launch of the Institute for Creation Research’s highly anticipated, first-ever graphic novel Project Artifact: The Spear. From visionary author Trey Bowling and illustrator Lori Fausak, its breathtaking artwork, suspenseful dialogue, and world of unfolding intrigue and danger open a bold new avenue for exploring Genesis as history.

Set in AD 2257, the story follows corporate scientist Dr. Gideon Gates as he uses the AI-powered initiative known as Project Artifact to examine an ancient spear. The information it reveals not only shocks him but also challenges the widely accepted narrative of humanity’s past. As Dr. Gates embarks on a dangerous quest, he encounters layers of injustice, secrecy, and powerful opposition. Will the truth endure in a world determined to suppress it?

Project Artifact: The Spear is available at the ICR online store and the ICR Discovery Center bookstore in Dallas, Texas. Fans looking for a personal touch can meet the author on Thursday, September 18, 2025, when ICR hosts a special book signing at the ICR Discovery Center in conjunction with its North Texas Giving Day event. We invite you to attend, pick up your own signed copy, and join the excitement surrounding ICR’s latest literary venture.

Visit ProjectArtifact.net for details about the story's universe and characters, and check out the ICR store for official Project Artifact merchandise.
