Hello, Fellow Explorers of Jareth’s Realm!
“Everything I’ve done, I’ve done for you.” It’s true, it’s true!
Since we last updated you all, we have started the creative development of our upcoming LABYRINTH Adaptation and wanted to share our progress with you. Writer Kyla Vanderklugt has completed her outline of the adaptation and artist Giorgio Spalleta is scheduled to begin work on the project in about a month after he completes his current series, Alice Never After. There’s still time for you add-on items in BackerKit or let a fellow LABYRINTH fan know that they can reserve a copy on our BackerKit store.
In the meantime, we did want to bring your attention to another set of Henson books that we think you’d really like.
Starting in October, we’ll begin releasing the Complete Collections of all of our Dark Crystal comics in comic shops and book stores worldwide, which includes:
Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal Creation Myths, an original Graphic Novel series that delves into the origins of Aughra, urSkeks, Skeksis, Mystics, Gelfling, and the Dark Crystal itself. This releases on October 24th, 2023.
Jim Henson’s Power Of The Dark Crystal, which follows the adventures of a young Fireling named Thurma, together with Kensho, a Gelfling outcast, that steal a shard of the Crystal of Truth in an attempt to reignite the dying sun. This releases on November 14th, 2023.
Jim Henson’s Beneath The Dark Crystal, which continues Thurma and Kensho’s story from Power Of The Dark Crystal. This book delves into Kensho’s past at the Crystal Castle and Thurma’s ascension to Ember Queen. This releases on November 14th, 2023.
Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal Age of Resistance, which is a prequel series. The Skeksis reign over Thra, but there are distant echoes of rebellion, with Gelfling and unlikely heroes emerging to champion what is good and just. Epic tales of adventure, magic, and mystery send us back in time to the Age of Resistance to witness the untold histories that forged these protectors of Thra. This releases on December 12th 2023.
You can order all of these through your Local Comic Book shop, at your local independent bookstore, Amazon, through our webstore, or wherever books are sold.
That’s all for now! In the meantime should you ever need us… for any questions concerning your pre-order, please reach out to [email protected] for the fastest response.

Hello, Fellow Explorers of Jareth’s Realm!
Now that we are out of the maze so to speak, we wanted to begin by thanking all 3,646 of you for helping make this campaign the 12th most funded comic book campaign on Kickstarter of all time!
Going forward, we’ll be using our updates to post information about production, as well as any clarifying information on your orders, how to access or change things within the system, and any other timelines you might need to be aware of. With that table set, let’s get started!
To start, we just want to officially reiterate which stretch goals were and weren’t unlocked. Using our handy dandy graphic here, you’ll see…
That while we were not able to meet the last stretch goal, which would’ve unlocked the Ultimate Visual History and 2026 Calendar, we did unlock every other Stretch Goal. If you reserved your order during the campaign, you’ll be receiving every Stretch Goal you are eligible for and that has a checkmark next to it. Our previous updates include more details on each Stretch Goal.
If you reserve your order after the active campaign ended, using our BackerKit pre-order store, you will only be eligible to receive the Hardcover & Slipcase Upgrades, the Digital PDFs, additional 12 pages of story content, and upgraded movie replica posters. You will not be eligible to receive the Miguel Mercado print, Fiona Staples print set, and bookmarks unfortunately.
We’ll be leaving the pre-order store open until August 1st, 2024, but will be sending surveys out to backers in September of this year to start capturing address information. Keep an eye out for an email from BackerKit about mid month!
Speaking of packing, it was brought up on this campaign page that one of our other campaigns has been experiencing issues with damaged products. As we noted in a recent update, we are working with our logistics partner to address that issue and build a better packing approach for the future. They’ve sent over two pictures of how they’ve been packing the boxes for IRREDEEMABLE and the upcoming GIANT DAYS fulfillments, which we wanted to include here.
Hopefully, that gives you a sense of security about how we’ll be handling these books, to ensure that they are in the best possible condition they could be when they arrive to you.
And finally, in our last update, we announced the creative team for the adaptation and wanted to share some samples of Giorgio Spalleta's previous work!
We’re really excited to bring his fantastical, bold style to the project and see how he interprets A.C.H. Smith’s prose! Let us know what you think in the comments below!
That’s all for now! In the meantime should you ever need us… for any questions concerning your pre-order, please reach out to [email protected] for the fastest response.
