1st printing. By Kim Deitch. How I Make Comics is not just about how Kim Deitch makes comics, but about how comics made him. The book pinwheels between real autobiography and imagined comics history, but it begins in 1952 with a true story of eight-year-old Kim Deitch appearing in the audience of the Howdy Doody Show with eight-year-old Donnie Trump. Following Donnies attempt to rig an election among the audience (no kidding!), Deitch relates a famous newspaper account of a diminutive wife who valiantly defends her equally diminutive husband in court, who just happens to be the inspiration of Harold Grays Little Orphan Annie. Periodically, Kim asks his own wife for her critique and advice of the stories hes told so far, which he takes into account for future tales that include revenge-driven circus performers, fairytale mural painters, sordid comic book lore, comics readers creating real-life superheroes, impossibly old cats issuing supernatural judgments and inhabiting the bodies of humans, culminating in the real-life story of Kims mother hitchhiking across country and being picked up by none other than Forrest J. Ackerman, the sci-fi, fantasy, and monster aficionado, who takes her to a convention where she meets a teenaged Ray Bradbury. How I Make Comics is a creatively kaleidoscopic, non-stop exploration of how Deitchs imagination turns ideas, influences, and irritations into comics in his inimitable style. Snippets of behind-the-scenes explanations of his notes and sketches expand into cascading short stories. Each section goes freewheeling from notion to notion, quietly building themes and reveling in its own wild-eyed imaginative capacities across 180 pages to form both an intimate graphic memoir and an eye-popping graphic novel. One of the most prolific artists of his generation, Deitch enters his 60th year of cartooning more inventive than ever and showing no signs of slowing down. Hardcover, 192 pages, full color. Cover price $24.99.

1st printing. Story and art by Emma Hunsinger. Thirteen-year-old Tara lives inside the non-stop adventure of her imagination.

She's not ready to watch the racy shows the high school kids like, or to listen to the angsty music, or to stop playing make-believe with her younger brother. She's not ready to change for PE in front of everyone, or for the chaos of the hallways or for the anarchy of an English class that's overrun with fourteen-year-old boys. But then there's Libby. Tara doesn't know whether she's ready for Libby. She can't even explain who Libby is to her because she doesn't know yet. She just knows that everything's more fun when she and her new classmate are together. But what will happen next? How will it all end? Hardtcover, 6-in.x 9-in., 304 pages, full color.

Story and art by Molly Mercier.

Long ago in March of 2019, a gothic young woman had an idea. It was, perhaps, a lazy idea, but aren't all the best ones? After all, lazy is just another word for efficient. And thus, a comic idea was born: The Lazy Goth!

The Lazy Goth explores the particular struggles of being an unmotivated goth in a world of motivated people. How To Alienate Friends and Avoid People is a graphic novel that not only depicts the struggles of being a square peg in a round hole, but celebrates it. Be it at home, work, on the internet, in relationships, or in her own feelings of self-worth and identity, The Lazy Goth discovers that no matter what, she is "enough."
