It includes previously unseen sketches, the Dark Horse Presents one-shot, and an introduction by Mike Mignola, all beautifully bound in a hardcover with a dust jacket. In Murky World, Tugat the warrior awakens from a peculiar dream to find himself in a strange land filled with hungry deadlings, cruel necromancers, alluring cyclopes, and sinister cults, embarking on a perilous journey with his cherished horse, Frix.
