Comic Book Club @ NYCC 2024: Patrick Horvath Teases Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees Sequel Rite Of Spring

IDW's Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees is an enormous hit. Not only did the recently released trade of the "cozy horror" series hit number two on ICv2's sales charts, just below Marvel's monster hit Ultimate Spider-Man, but every issue of the initial series sold better than the last. And as just announced by IDW at New York Comic Con, not only is Beneath the Trees getting a sequel series titled Rite of Spring, but the publisher is essentially building a whole horror line around it called IDW Dark.In Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, we meet Samantha, a normal bear living a normal life in a normal town. Except when she goes out of town, she uses the opportunity to unwind and brutally murder unsuspecting fellow animals. That is until another murderer appears in her hometown, unraveling her whole life.While Horvath couldn't spill all the details about Rite of Spring, he is able to tease that we'll jump forward in time... If the first series was ostensibly set in the '80s, this is set in the '90s. And yes, the "Rite of Spring" title is purposeful on many levels. Not only will the setting be different, but the format will also be different. Instead of six issues, Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring will run three double-sized issues. So the same page count, but a different release schedule.In advance of the announcement, Comic Book Club sat down with Horvath in Artist Alley to discuss the success of Beneath the Trees, what to expect from the sequel, and much more.SUBSCRIBE ON RSS, APPLE, SPOTIFY, OR THE APP OF YOUR CHOICE.
