The Brooding Muse Universe

The Brooding Muse is an expansive graphic novel universe exploring dark fantasy, existentialism, and psychological horror. Underground, raw, scarred, and unapologetic – this is the unforgiving universe they couldn’t keep buried. Its geography is anchored by a ritual boundary known as The Path, guarded by three Watcher Pyramids and connected to the urban stronghold of Manhattan by the Bridge of Neth. Across its territories stretch the Baku and Bakhtak Mountains, Black Lake, Night Spider Falls, and the Field of the 4080.
