A stormy night in the mountains forces a lone traveler to take shelter in a witch’s house, where the witch spins a yarn of the mysterious and merciless Skinless Man who is in pursuit of new skin at any cost, and the gang of warlocks who were foolish enough to try to deceive him.
“The Skinless Man” marks Stenbeck’s first story in the horror-fantasy Lands Unknown universe, co-created with Hellboy’s Mike Mignola.
Fans first encountered legendary Hellboy creator Mike Mignola and Ben Stenbeck’s visionary new shared universe in Mignola’s bestselling Bowling With Corpses and Other Strange Tales From Lands Unknown. The anthology of folklore-inspired fantasy stories welcomed readers into a beautifully drawn world of powerful sorcerers, talking ducks, undead adventurers, and a host of imaginative, idiosyncratic characters, myths, and legends. Now Ben Stenbeck, the writer/artist of the acclaimed series Our Bones Dust, is making his Lands Unknown debut writing and drawing The Skinless Man, a two-issue comic event. Joined by colorist Dave Stewart and letterer Clem Robins, Stenbeck will give readers a glimpse into the terrifying side of the Lands Unknown. Both issues of The Skinless Manwill feature covers by Stenbeck and the first issue will feature a variant cover by Mike Mignola.
While Mignola’s Bowling With Corpsesexplores the fantastical, charming side of the Lands Unknown, The Skinless Man #1is a nightmarish horror story. When a stormy night in the mountains forces a lone traveler to take shelter in a witch’s house, she spins a chilling yarn of the mysterious and merciless Skinless Man, who is in pursuit of new skin at any cost. When a gang of warlocks is foolish enough to try to deceive him, they learn just how far he’s willing to go.
In addition to Stenbeck’s upcoming comic, the Lands Unknown universe continues to expand in Mike Mignola’s upcoming graphic novel. Uri Tupka and The Gods: Another Story from Lands Unknown follows the titular wayward theologian across the Lands Unknown on a quest to prove that ancient powerful gods shaped the world. Uri’s journey puts him face to face with mythical creatures, thieves, dragons, and a tomb of unspeakable horror. But nothing can prepare the unlikely adventurer for what he learns about the universe and his role in it.
Uri Tupka and the Gods: Another Story from Lands Unknown is a 104-page hardcover that will be released in bookstores and comic shops on February 24, 2026. Lands Unknown: The Skinless Man #1 is due out on March 4, 2026.
