The Woods Book Three

The final volume of three telling the saga of a Midwestern high school transported into the middle of an alien forest, and how its students must fight for survival!

Collected in a more compact trim for the very first time, this is the most cost-effective way to read the epic saga by superstar writer James Tynion IV and artist Michael Dialynas.

In the years since they were first transported to an alien wilderness in the depths of space, the students of Bay Point Preparatory High School have had to grow up fast—first simply to survive, and later to build some kind of life on this foreign moon. Now, that new life is being threatened as human nature yet again rears its ugly head, and the students discover something that was once thought impossible: A way home...

Written by James Tynion IV (Justice League, Memetic) and illustrated by Michael Dialynas (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), The Woods Book Three collects the next stretch of the seminal GLAAD Award-winning series.
