Uri Tupka and the Gods by Writer: Mike Mignola Artist: Mike Mignola Colorist: Dave Stewart Letterer: Clem Robins
Cover artist: Mike Mignola
Hellboy’s author is not done telling stories, and he has found an unlikely new hero to pursue his interest in all the old Eastern fairy tales he draws inspiration from: Uri Tupka.
A timeless tale in a far-off land, this graphic novel follows a scholar and strong believer in the gods named Uri Tupka.
He has displeased the Emperor and must now run to save his life (a cat in a dream told him to run, and, luckily for him, he listened).
Is it possible that the gods have abandoned the human race? In his quest for answers, Uri Tupka meets with giant talking elephants, giants, devils, and a dark, unsettling tomb. It turns out that not only is he a witness to the truth, but he has a role to play…
I truly love authors who dedicate their entire life to building magnificent, self-contained universes: Stan Sakai, Stephen King, Terry Pratchett, Mike Mignola. I admire their grit and passion, and the joy they must feel, being able to create every day of their lives.
Uri Tupka and the Gods: Another Story from Lands Unknown is set in the same universe as Bowling with Corpses.
