1st printing. Written by Albert McLeod, Elaine Mordoch, and Sonya Ballantyne. Art and cover by Alice R L. Thirteen-year-old Chase's life and identity should be simple. He's the goalie for his hockey team, the Eagles. He's a friend to Kevin and Jade. He's Kookum's youngest grandchild. He's a boy. He should like girls. But it's not that simple. Chase doesn't like girls the way that the other boys do. It's scary being so different from his peers. Scarier still is the feeling that his teammates can tell who he is-and that they hate him for it. If he pretends hard enough, maybe he can hide the truth, but real strength and change can't come from a place of shame. Chase's dreams are troubled by visions of a bear spirit, and the more he tries to hide, the more everything falls apart. With the help of an Elder, and a Two-Spirit mentor, can Chase find the strength to be proud of who he is? This graphic novel explores toxic masculinity through the experiences of an Indigenous teen. Softcover, 56 pages, full color. Cover price $18.95.

Story and art Alyssa Bermudez.

In this heartfelt diary-style graphic memoir, a young New Yorker doodles her way through middle school - until the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack leaves her wondering if she can ever be a kid again. 12-year old Alyssa splits time between her Puerto Rican dad's apartment in Manhattan and her white mom's new place in Queens, navigating the trials and tribulations of middle school, and an epic crush on a new classmate.

The only way to make sense of it all is to capture the highs and lows in doodles and hilarious comics in a diary. Then life abruptly changes on September 11, 2001. After the Twin Towers fall and so many lives are lost, worries about gossip and boys feel distant and insignificant.

Alyssa must find a new sense of self and purpose amidst all of the chaos, and find the strength to move forward with hope.

Fantagraphics 1st Edition - 1st Printing. Story, art, and cover by Charles Burns.

1st printing. Story and art by Scott Mills. An historical novel set in ancient Japan, told with heart and a bellyful of laughs. With his sensitive take on humanity and his completely original artistic vision, Scott Mills' thoughtful tale of early Japan has already proven itself quite popular. ... It has been several thousand years since the end of the last ice age. The waters have warmed and risen, excising great portions of East Asia, while simultaneously creating the cluster of islands we now know as Japan. Across this modest new body of water came many immigrants. Some sought freedom. Some sought fortune. ... When Sun Kim came from Korea to Kyuushuu, the southernmost of the four largest islands of Japan, she was simply looking for a fresh start. ... Complete with panel-by-panel Japanese-language translations, to boot! Softcover (Horizontal Format), 8 1/2-in. x 7-in., 144 pages, B&W. Cover price $12.95.

Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Not All of Us Peak in High School!"

Written by Kheryl Brown-Ahmed. Art and cove by Siobhan Keenan.

She used to be the laughingstock of Riverdale. Now she's a successful New York journalist with a DGAF attitude.

When the Mayor of Riverdale pays her handsomely to write a history of the city, she can't wait to return to take down Archie, Jughead, Betty, Veronica, and all the other Riverdale natives who made her life hell all those years ago. The only thing she forgets to consider is... maybe they've all changed, too.
