Writer Patrick Horvath is jumping back into BTTWNS for a new Halloween Special. He is teaming up with a who’s who of comic creators, including:

  • James Tynion IV (Exquisite Corpses) and Tyler Boss (You’ll Do Bad Things) 
  • Tony Fleecs (Feral) and Dave Wachter (Uncanny Valley) 
  • Che Grayson (Absolute Catwoman) and Matt Emmons (The Council of Frogs), and Jared Cullum (Usagi Yojimbo)

Patrick had this to say about the new one-shot: 

“I’m thrilled to invite some new friends to play for a bit in the world of BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES. Every new step this project has taken has been such a treat, and I felt like there’s no better time for it than Halloween. I can’t wait for readers to see what these new creators have in store for them.” 

Meanwhile, James Tynion IV said this about joining the one-shot: 

“BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES is one of my favorite comics of the past few years, and it’s a pleasure to be invited to have a bit of gruesome fun in this killer, off-kilter world Patrick has created.” 

Tony Fleecs said: 

“I was a BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES  fan before almost anyone. I read a review copy before the first issue came out and haven’t stopped loudly singing its praises since. Patrick Horvath is working in a subgenera of a subgenre. He’s taking something familiar and comforting and adding outrageous violence and pathology and creating something wholly original. I couldn’t be more excited to come play in his sandbox. And that I’ve got the genius Dave Wachter here with me (co-creator of the Eisner Nominated Uncanny Valley) and we’re sharing the book with Patrick himself and James Tynion and Jared Cullum. This promises to be a beautifully disgusting comic.” 

Che Grayson brought up: 

“BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES is equal parts charming, horrific and morbidly beautiful. Patrick is a visionary and what he has brought to comics and the horror genre is something truly singular. Getting to play in the proverbial sandbox for this Halloween special is going to be a real treat.” 

Jard Cullum also brought up: 

“Patrick brings a poetic subtlety to an often intense story-world that only he can, with art that is both timeless and unique. The soft tonal palette, atmosphere and time-honored sacred traditional approach often juxtaposed against the darker, if sometimes profane imagery works so well for his stories and swallows you whole into his work. It’s an honor to have a chance to humbly play in his world.“ 

Dave Wachter had also said: 

“BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time. I absolutely adore it. Patrick Horvath has created something truly unique. And it really taps into the brainstems of those of us who grew up on Richard Scarry books. I love working with my brilliant friend Tony Fleecs, so when I was asked to draw a story in this world, there was no way I was going to say anything but ‘F* yeah!’ I can’t wait to draw something really creepy for this.” 

Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees Halloween Special #1 releases October 7th.
