Ulverytterne har søgt ly hos solfolket i Sorgs Ende, hvor deres høvding, Ilder, har fundet sin livsledsager i solfolkets smukke helbreder, Leetah. Men en dag dukker elvernes værste fjende, mennesket, op og fortæller, at ulverytterne og solfolket ikke er de eneste elvere i denne verden. Opsat på at finde andre elverstammer af deres slags, begiver Ilder og Tyde ud på en lang og farefuld færd. Men et dårlig varsel får Leetah, hendes to børn og en lille eskorte af ulveryttere til at drage ud for at advare Ilder og Tyde.I 1978 udsendte ægteparret Wendy og Richard første nummer i serien om Elverfolket, og på kort tid blev den et fænomen på den amerikanske tegneseriescene. Inspireret af myter og sagn, klassisk litteratur såvel som fantasyfortællinger blev den lange saga om elverfolkets stræben efter det forjættede, fredelige hjem en af de største tegneseriesuccesser på en scene, der traditionelt var domineret af superhelte.Elverfolket bind 2 samler episode 6-10 i den populære fantasy-saga med ny farvelægning og oversættelse. Desuden indeholder dette bind en ekstra episode samt sider, der oprindeligt er udeladt i de oprindelige episoder, og som her præsenteres for første gang på dansk.

Da Yoko besøger sit hjemland, Japan, hvirvles hun ind i en dødbringende strid mellem sin far og hans modstander, den skrupelløse våbenfabrikant Kazuky, der ender med Yokos deltagelse i en fatal kamikazemission sammen med hendes gamle læremester og mentor, Aoki. Senere dukker Kazuky op igen, denne gang i Europa, hvor Yoko sammen med sin veninde Ingrid medvirker i en vaskeægte thriller om bord på det legendariske tog »Rheingold« i de maleriske omgivelser lang Rhinen. Skotland er tågernes og legendernes land, og hvert slot har efter sigende sit genfærd. Men på Loch Castle forekommer der at være mere end ét – foruden en lang række andre hemmeligheder, der kredser om den tilsyneladende uligevægtig unge slotsarving, Cecilia. Temaet for dette syvende samlebind er intrigante rænkespil, sammensværgelser, komplotter og konspirationer. Skumle gerninger i skyggernes ly, om de så er affødt af begær efter magt og rigdom eller af mellemmenneskelige æreskodekser. Et emne, der bestemt ikke er blevet mindre aktuelt, end da Roger Leloup skabte de tre klassiske album, som er med i dette samlebind: Vindens datter, Gengangerens hævn, og Rhinguldet. Tre af Yoko Tsunos klassiske eventyr, som ikke har kunnet fås i mange år.Endvidere indeholder bogen et omfattende og rigt illustreret ekstramateriale om tegneseriens og de enkelte historiers tilblivelse, denne gang skrevet i en meget personlig stil af Roger Leloup selv. Pressen skrev om de tidligere samlebind: “Som altid er tegningerne sublime.” ****** – Serieland “Nostalgisk fryd.” ***** – Berlingske “Forrygende flot med et væld af lækkert ekstramateriale.” ***** – Ekstra Bladet“Man overvældes af detaljeringsgraden og det enorme arbejde, der er lagt i hver enkelt tegning.” – nummer9.dk
