(W) Cullen Bunn (A) Christopher Mitten (CA) Malachi Ward

In the borderlands between imagination and reality, horror and fantasy, master storyteller Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Harrow County) and visionary artist Christopher Mitten (Hellboy & the B.P.R.D.) begin one familys labyrinthine descent through a perilous forest where the local folklore is anything but a myth . . . Bestselling author Andrew Kier found the perfect place to finish his latest dark-fantasy novelan idyllic, remote cabin on the edge of a lush Swedish forest. His young daughters, Sommer and Winter, gleefully explore . . . until they happen upon a strange clearing of ancient statues: goblins, dwarves, elves, and a warrior queen mysteriously missing her sword hand and weapon. When something sinister follows the girls home and viciously snatches their parents in the night, the sisters only hope may be that ancient relic, lost in the forest underbrush, waiting for a new champion to take it up . . .
