About this Collection

This hardcover collects the 2004 Dark Horse original graphic novel Creatures of the Night, written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Michael Zulli. The story follows a young boy named Toby who moves to a remote farm with his father, only to discover that the strange, cat-like creatures lurking in the nearby woods may be more than just local legend. Gaiman and Zulli weave a haunting, lyrical tale about fear, loss, and the thin line between the natural and supernatural worlds.

In "The Price," Neil Gaiman crafts a haunting tale of isolation and resilience, following an orphan girl raised in the forgotten shadows of an old convent. Michael Zulli’s striking, deeply textured artwork—penciled, inked, and colored by him—brings the story’s eerie atmosphere to life, capturing the quiet power of a girl who survives not despite the world, but because of it. Cover by Michael Zulli.

In "The Daughter of Owls," an orphan girl raised in the ruins of an old convent learns to survive in the wild, her days shaped by silence and shadow. When the men of the town finally return, they find more than a feral child—they find something ancient, watching, and far from helpless.
