An expanded look into the art of Over the Garden Wall is on the way from Dark Horse Books.

Venture into the Unknown once more and experience Patrick McHale’s beloved award-winning animated miniseries, Over the Garden Wall, with Art of Over the Garden Wall: Expanded Edition. The book is scheduled to be released on February 9, 2027.

Written by Sean Edgar, Art of Over the Garden Wall: Expanded Edition overflows with concept art, illustrations, and developmental material from creator and showrunner Patrick McHale and the show’s creative team, offering a definitive exploration into the iconic animated show. Originally airing in 2014 on Cartoon Network, Over the Garden Wall follows two half-brothers, Wirt and Greg, journeying through a strange autumnal fantasyland to find their way home.

This newly designed and updated edition includes all the content from the first edition and adds over thirty pages in a brand-new chapter featuring new cast and crew interviews (including Elijah Wood, Melanie Lynskey, and Collin Dean), artwork from the various BOOM! Studios comic series, concept designs from Mondo’s collectible figures, and photography and preproduction art from a wide range of delights created to honor the show’s legacy since the first edition was published.

Art of Over the Garden Wall: Expanded Edition will also include new cover art by Over the Garden Wall art director Nick Cross and a new foreword by Gravity Falls creator Alex Hirsch.
