Courtesy of Neil Gaiman, we're treated to an all-too-brief preview, with the covers, of P. Craig Russell's adaptation of The Graveyard Book, the author's award-winning 2008 children's novel.

Russell, a longtime Gaiman collaborator, is joined on the two-volume graphic novel by an impressive roster of artists, each illustrating one chapter: Kevin Nowlan, Tony Harris, Scott Hampton, Galen Showman, Jill Thompson and Stephen B. Scott on the first book, and David Lafuente, Hampton, Nowlan and Showman on the second.

The first volume will be released on July 29, followed by the second on Sept. 30.
