Once upon a time, Jim Henson was born in Mississippi. Then a lot of other stuff happened, culminating in my revealing the OFFICIAL LIST of writers & artists working on the JIM HENSON’S THE STORYTELLER hardcover from Archaia, coming this September to places that sell stuff near you!!!!!

OLD NICK & THE PEDDLER, from a Scandinavian folk tale. Script & Art by ROGER LANGRIDGE.

PUSS IN BOOTS, from a French fairy tale. Script by MARJORIE LIU. Art by JENNIFER L. MEYER.

THE MILKMAID & HER PAIL, from an Aesop fable. Script & Art by COLLEEN COOVER.

MOMOTARO THE PEACH BOY, from a Japanese fairytale. Script by RON MARZ. Art by CRAIG ROUSSEAU.

AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN FRIENDS, from a Romanian folktale. Script & Art by CHRIS ELIOPOULOS.

THE FROG WHO BECAME AN EMPEROR, from a Chinese folktale. Script by PAUL TOBIN. Art by EVAN SHANER.

THE CRANE WIFE, from a Japanese folktale. Script & Art by KATIE COOK.

THE WITCH BABY, from a Russian fairytale & adapted from a screenplay by Anthony Minghella. Script by NATE COSBY. Art by RONAN CLIQUET.

So those are the stories! There’s a few surprises guests as well, but I’m keeping them a secret…no sense in spoiling the fun!

Rus Wooton’s handling production and lettering (except for the stories where the artists are doing their own lettering) and I’m editing the whole thing.

And the cover is by…one of my favorite artists in the world, and one of the most amazing colorists I’ve seen in a while. I’ll tell ya some other time. :)
