BENEATH THE TREES Where Nobody Sees Artist's Edition

This hardcover collection features every single page from the first six-issue series — plus the 10-page short story "Praludium" — all presented for the very first time exactly as Patrick Horvath painted them. Full size. No digital adjustments. Experience the full force of the art that became one of this decade’s biggest comics sensations. Also included are six clear overlay pages that showcase patch panels, enabling you to see the original art and the final art as it was published! In fall 2023, IDW Publishing released the first issue of Patrick Horvath's Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees. With its unique blend of beautiful watercolor art and shocking subject matter, it instantly lit the comic-book-reading world on fire and is one of the most popular original comic series of the last decade. Readers were captivated by the story of anthropomorphic serial-killer bear Samantha Strong and couldn’t spend enough time in the beautifully rendered town of Woodbrook. Every page of the groundbreaking indie-sensation comic series scanned from the creator’s original paintings and presented like never before in one magnificent collection! I picked this series up on release and I can say that it is a singular experience unto itself. A true crime tale of a serial killer hiding amongst their oblivious neighbors, and featuring anthropomorphic animals, is just plain nuts... but it absolutely works. That Patrick Horvath carries it off with such an effortless ease speaks volumes to his talents as a writer and artist. Seek this one out, you will not be disappointed. ~Marty
