LOS ANGELES, CA / NEW YORK, NY— October 1st, 2024— This holiday season, DSTLRY delivers an early stocking stuffer with Through the Boughs: A Yuletide Offering, a 64-page short story collection featuring stories from an all-star lineup of masterclass storytellers.
Through the Boughs: A Yuletide Offering features winter folklore from visionaries including James Tynion IV (Spectregraph), Patrick McHale (Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, Over the Garden Wall), Jim Campbell (Over the Garden Wall), Jensine Eckwall (Into the Goblin Market), Ryan Andrews (This Was Our Pact), Sweeney Boo (Harley Quinn), K. Wroten (Eden II), Grim Wilkins (Mirenda), and Molly Mendoza (Stray).
“There’s something special about the holidays,” explains contributor and DSTLRY Founding Creator James Tynion IV (Spectregraph, Something is Killing the Children). “I’ve always been drawn to the strange little stories we like to tell each other in the dead of winter, the strange warmth that comes from the coldest months. I can’t wait for everyone to see the strange little story I’ve cooked up here with the incredible Jensine Eckwall.”
“Holiday illustrations and old weird books have been a continual source of inspiration,” continues contributor Patrick McHale (Over the Garden Wall, Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio). “It’s been great to reunite with Jim to tell a new little story here. Good tidings to all!”
Edited by Bryce Gold and Sean Edgar, Through the Boughs: A Yuletide Offering promises a journey of delight, mischief, and spooky enchantment, expertly blending tradition with innovative storytelling.

“We’re creating a modern winter fantasy classic, uniting storytellers across comics, animation, and film,” said co-editor Bryce Gold. “This book is pure cottage-core, fire-toasted wonder, perfect for anyone who craves the eerie beauty and ancient magic of the frozen season,” continues co-editor Sean Edgar.
This marks Gold’s first project in his new role as DSTLRY’s Head of Talent Development. In this position, Gold will oversee the outreach and development of emerging writers and artists at the publisher. “Through the Boughs is a wonderful first step in merging established storytellers with writers and artists who are early in their journey,” Gold explains. “I’m ecstatic to help empower new voices in the sequential art space, and I can’t wait to continue that mission in future projects.”
Gold will also continue his position as Head of Operations.
“Starting with our very first publication, The Devil’s Cut, and continuing with Come Find Me, DSTLRY’s short-story collections have provided some of the most exciting tales we’ve released,” said DSTLRY co-founder and CCO Chip Mosher. “This collection of creators is truly impressive—we have Oscar, Emmy, and Eisner winners united for what could well be an annual holiday tradition” continued DSTLRY co-founder and CEO David Steinberger.
Through the Boughs: A Yuletide Offering will be available at local comic shops and digitally via www.dstlry.co this December, making it the perfect addition to any reader’s holiday season.
