COJACARU THE SKINNER, IMOGEN OF THE WYRDING WAY, and THE GOLEM WALKS AMONG US! each tell a self-contained story, but they’re also part of this broader story we’re telling of this world, the Outerverse, as our version of World War II kicks off. That’s the banner title for three separate, smaller stories spotlighting three of our favorite characters. Lady Baltimore was born of that.' Golden continued, 'But with so many and so much world-building to explore, we knew that wasn’t enough for us, and so 'Tales from the Outerverse' was born. In the previous books we had already established a deep mythology and a broad timeline, but we wanted to explore a time where the big story points would overlap. “I knew Sofia’s story wasn’t over and we’d talked about doing LADY BALTIMORE, but it felt like this new universe was so much bigger than that, just bursting with possibilities. “From the moment Mike and I realized that Baltimore and Joe Golem existed in the same universe, it started to grow and evolve in our minds,' said Golden in Dark Horse's press release. As Golden explains, this shared universe continues to grow as he and Mignola find themselves fascinated with the storytelling possibilities.
