Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal Volume 2: Creation Myths
Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal Volume 2: Creation Myths | Brian Froud, Jim Hensen, Brian Holguin
3 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
The Great Conjunction is at hand in this dramatic second volume of Archaia and The Jim Henson Company's trilogy of prequel graphic novels that tell the origin of The Dark Crystal. Aughra, the beloved guardian of Thra, has gone into hiding, while her son, Raunip, leads a team of emissaries to the Crystal Castle. There they will bear witness as the visiting Urskeks attempt to use the Conjunction to power their voyage home. But pain and mistrust fostered by the group leads to events that will corrupt the world to its very core and transform the Urskeks into two distinct races: the gentle urRu and the terrifying Skeksis. Brian Froud, legendary fantasy artist and conceptual designer of Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal film, returns to oversee this crucial chapter that reveals the tragic events that caused the Bright Crystal to darken and shatter.

I started reading the first book last night and couldn't stop until I finished vol. 3. They were so good. They covered the creation of Thra, the birth of Aughra and the shattering of the crystal. Also there was some background from making The Dark Crystal.

wanderinglynn Ooh, those sound awesome! 5y
LibrarianRyan I want those. I‘ve read them from the library but someday I shall get my own copy. If you do graphic novels check out Beneath the Dark Crystal. It‘s 3 volumes and it‘s the sequel that never got filmed 5y
