Hound is an Irish graphic novel written and drawn by Paul J. Bolger and co-written by Barry Devlin (of Horslips fame), with lettering by Dee Cunniffe and logo by Fran Walshnote not to be confused with the producer of The Lord of the Rings. It retells the Irish myth of Cú Chulainn in the Ulster Cycle from the perspective of Morrigan, the goddess of war.The graphic novel was first published in 3 volumes in limited copies by Polish animation studio BreakThru Productions. The volumes of the original run were subtitled Protector (2014), Defender (2016), and Liberator (2018). Paul rendered the graphic novel in black and white with an occasional use of red to save time and costs. British film producer Hugh Welchman edited the graphic novel and launched three successful Kickstarter campaigns to fund the original editions.In March 2022, American publisher Dark Horse Comics reprinted the graphic novel as a single volume—which is how Paul intended it to be read—with promotional text by Aidan Turner (actor: The Hobbit, Poldark), Peter Lord (director: Chicken Run, Pirates: Band of Misfits), and Tomm Moore (director: The Secret of Kells, Song of the Sea, Wolfwalkers) and a gallery of art dedicated by various 14 artists.

Morphic Resonance: Morrigan is a hooded crow in animal form and a dark-haired beautiful woman in human form. Her unique font and speech balloon style also extend to her Fomorian guise of Calatin at times.

Aborted Arc: Cú Cullan's decision to visit Skye after the death of his only son by Eva seems to be building up to a payoff for Skye's comment to Eva that "What goes around comes around" upon his departure from the Isle of Skye. This plotline is dropped when he goes to Brunaboyne instead upon hearing that Emer is there praying for him.

Death of a Child: Cú Cullan kills a number of children over the course of the story: three among Eva's Kelpies when they attack Skye's school; a group of boys forced to gather wood for the Connact army; and his only son by Eva on the Fomorian Stones. The last two cases take place under Morrigan's influence. Cú Cullan comes across the corpse of a child at the beginning of the invasion of Ulla, in which Morrigan taunts him over not being there to protect the boy in time.

God Save Us from the Queen!: Queen Maeve of Connact despises King Connor for preferring sports and parties over battles. Halfway through the story, she wages war against his kingdom of Ulla out of pride and greed, unaware of her advisor's manipulation. She eventually decides to "take more than King Connor's bloody bull" and encourages her allies to "reap all [they] want" as well.

Arranged Marriage: King Connor tasks Cú Cullan to escort Emer to marry him. Neither the king nor Emer has seen each other and the bride-to-be is unhappy that she is promised to a man older than her own father, and not by her will.

Evil Matriarch: In kidnapping Setanta as a baby, Morrigan causes the death of his real mother, Detira. She encourages Setanta to pursue what he's best at since then, referring to herself and him as mother and son.

Do Not Taunt Cthulhu: During the final battle, Morrigan appears as a gigantic monster to Cú Cullan and the warriors of Ulla. Emer, the only non-combatant present, courageously proclaims that the goddess of war doesn't scare her. Emer pays the price for this with her life as Morrigan responds, "I don't want you scared Goose... ... I want you gone!"

Child Soldiers: Eva's band of seaweed-clad warriors called the Kelpies includes at least three children, if Cú Cullan's comment when they attack Skye's school is anything to go by. Eva sends her only son with an axe and in armour to "take the head of every dog lover [...] or die trying" when he is only a child. He effortlessly beheads one man before fighting Cú Cullan, who only finds out that he is his son upon fatally wounding him.

Dark Action Girl: Eva leads a band of seaweed-clad warriors called the Kelpies to attack anyone who attempts to reach the Isle of Skye. She later fights her estranged mother, Skye, to take control of the latter's school. Maeve, the warrior queen of Connact, leads her army and those from the east and south to invade Ulla. She effortlessly hurls a spear at Morrigan as they march through a river, exposing the goddess' disguise as she turns into a crow. Near the end of the story, she leads a surprise attack on Cú Cullan with a short sword.
