Beyond The Garden Wall

"A complete tour through the development and production of the hit animated miniseries Over the Garden Wall, this volume contains hundreds of pieces of concept art and sketches"--

A 12-year-old boy, mourning the death of his mother, takes refuge in the myths and fairytales she always loved--and finds that his reality and a fantasy world start to meld.

Forced to take separate paths upon reaching a crossroad, Wirt and Greg come across ghostly towns and fantastical creatures, but something more sinister lurks in the shadows.

Eisner Award-winning writer Jonathan Case (Before Tomorrowland) and Eisner Award-winning Over the Garden Wall artist Jim Campbell present the first Over the Garden Wall original graphic novel. When Greg and Wirt make it back home from The Unknown, they are shocked to see that Beatrice is still with them, trapped away from her home. Now, they must work to get back to the place they just left, and keep anyone from realizing that Beatrice is not just a normal bird. As Greg and Wirt struggle to keep Beatrice's secret, they work to rediscover their lives at home ... but everything seems just a bit off. Is it them that have changed, or their home?
