The Legendary Cartoonist\u2019s New Graphic Novel Arrives from Dark Horse Comics in November 2026<\/b><\/p>\n

\n<\/p>

\"Uri<\/p>\n

This November, trailblazing cartoonist and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola will release his third original graphic novel in two years. Following the success of 2025\u2019s Bram Stoker Award-nominated Bowling With Corpses and Other Strange Tales From Lands Unknown<\/i><\/b> and this year\u2019s highly anticipated Uri Tupka and the Gods<\/i><\/b>, Mignola is expanding the Lands Unknown Universe he\u2019s creating with cartoonist Ben Stenbeck with a new folktale anthology exploring the origins of legends of this strange new shared universe. Written and drawn by Mignola with colors from Dave Stewart and letters from Clem Robins, URI TUPKA AND THE DEVILS<\/b><\/a> is due out in November from Dark Horse Comics.<\/p>\n

\u201cUri has found the gods but he still has questions and so he\u2019s gone to look for the answers\u2014In a nightmare castle full of devils!\u201d Mignola adds, \u201cSee Uri change shape, tumble through his own inner workings and take a pretty savage beating. I put the poor guy through the wringer in this one and I feel a little bad about that, but you gotta do what you gotta do, and these \u201cLands Unknown\u2019\u2019 are not all sunshine and flowers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Picking up after the events of Uri Tupka and the Gods<\/i>, URI TUPKA AND THE DEVILS<\/i><\/b> follows the weary hero on a new quest for the secret history of the universe. After his search for the ancient gods ended with some answers and even more questions, heretic and theologian Uri Tupka travels further to discover the truth about the darkness before the world began and what it means for mankind. He visits a Baron\u2019s library full of esoteric books beyond even Uri\u2019s imagination. Each night in the library brings new insight and clarity, but threatens to consume Uri as his unquenchable desire for understanding sends him down a dangerous path.<\/p>\n

URI TUPKA AND THE DEVILS<\/i><\/b> arrives in bookstores and comic shops on November 17, 2026, for $24.99.

Here\u2019s what people are saying about Uri Tupka and the Gods<\/i><\/b> and<\/p>\n

Bowling With Corpses and Other Strange Tales From Lands Unknown:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cNow, as it regards this new book, Uri Tupka and the Gods<\/i>, it just might be up there with Mignola\u2019s best-ever work<\/b>.\u201d \u2014 COMICS BEAT<\/p>\n

\u201cMignola is justly celebrated as a visual stylist, not just of horror comics but of comics writ large<\/b>. While another artist might rely on grotesque specifics to frighten the reader, Mignola\u2019s insinuating expanses of black ink conceal all but the most necessary details of a rich and malevolent world, filled with monstrosities, yes, but also oddities, many of them delightful\u2026. This book is a good reminder that the history of imaginative literature is also the history of illustrated literature.<\/b>\u201d \u2014 NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW<\/p>\n

\u201cDeliciously macabre.\u201d<\/b> \u2014 FORBES<\/p>\n

\u201cMike Mignola is back, and this time, the Hellboy<\/i> creator is inviting us into a wholly new universe of eerie, whimsical, and darkly enchanting folktales<\/b>… it’s a portal into a realm where the strange turns familiar and the familiar seems strange.\u201d<\/b> \u2014 BOING BOING<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is Mignola\u2019s<\/b> Grimms\u2019 Fairy Tales<\/i><\/b>.\u201d<\/b>\u2014 FANBASE PRESS<\/p>\n

\u201cUnlike someone like Walt Disney (the man, and eventually the company), Mignola isn’t looking to modernize these old pieces of folklore and fairy tales – he wants to peel back the layers closer to the roots:\u201d \u2014 POPVERSE<\/p>\n

\u201cThis isn’t just a new story by Mike Mignola. We’re being presented to an entire new World, a charming, complex, magical world, where from every corner comes a handful of inspiring new characters<\/b>. If you weren’t there the moment Mignola revolutionized comics creating Hellboy, this is your chance to get onboard, because he’s about to start a brand new revolution.\u201d \u2014 F\u00e1bio Moon (Daytripper<\/i>)<\/p>\n

Uri Tupka and the Devils<\/b> is a 104-page hardcover that will be released in bookstores and comic shops on November 16, 2026. Follow Dark Horse Comics on social media<\/a> for more news, announcements, and updates.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
