Shaman's Tears/Turok was intended to be a crossover comic between Turok and Shaman's Tears Joshua Brand. It would have been a three issue mini-series published by Valiant in 1995.[1]
On the comic seeing a belated release, Mike Grell has said “Not a chance. That deal fell apart on a corporate level.”[2] Although the crossover went unpublished, Mike Grell went on to write a couple of Turok: Dinosaur Hunter comics at a later date.[3]
A large number of uncoloured pages from Issue 2 has appeared online over the years and have been collected in the gallery below.
