Archaia have released a preview of Tale of Sand, an original graphic novel adaptation by Ramón Perez of an unproduced screenplay by Jim Henson and Jerry Juhl.

A Tale of Sand follows scruffy everyman Mac, who wakes up in an unfamiliar town, and is chased across the desert of the American Southwest by all manners of man and beast of unimaginable proportions. Produced with the complete blessing of Henson CEO Lisa Henson, A Tale of Sand will allow Henson fans to recognize some of the inspirations and set pieces that appeared in later Henson Company productions.

Brendon spoke to Archaia's Stephen Christy about the book previously. He has more interviews on the subject to come soon.
