The Woodchipper gets a lovely review from @undertheradar.bsky.social: "Another great book from Ollmann [that] smartly balances minor modern sorrows with weirdness and humor."

A panel from Roaming by Jillian and Mariko Tamaki. I love how it incidentally captures trying to squeeze a takeout container into a too-full garbage can -- a weirdly familar moment I've never seen in print.
So this broke me a bit

Really loved this graphic history (w/some memoir elements from the author/artist) about the British Mitford sisters, low-level aristocrats who interacted with many notable figures of the 20th century (Churchill, Hitler, Kennedys, De Gaulle, etc.)

22) Do Admit!: The Mitford Sisters and Me by Mimi Pond
I’m a sucker for a good biography and before this, I didn’t understand why people were so fascinated by the Mitford sisters. Now I do.

Graphic Novel Review: METADOGGOZ is a stylish comic that goes hard
In Bérénice Motais de Narbonne new book Metadoggoz, the cartoonist takes readers on an intense, trippy journey.
My first Adrian Tomine book, it’s so good! Crazy-good comedic timing amidst some occasionally quite depressing interior stories. Grounded premises with real people, in occasionally absurdly mundane situations. Hortisculpture is my favorite story of the lot
My new favorite game I learned from Lynda Barry

Star-studded turnout last night at Joe Ollmann's book launch at D&Q in Montréal. Salle comble pour Joe Ollmann à son lancement à Montréal chez D&Q pour The Woodchipper.
four early year graphic novels I have enjoyed, half of which are out now with the others coming very soon
Coming back down to earth from another ComicsPro! Thanks to all the publishing pals, distribution dawgs, funny paper freaks that visited us over the last week, including but not limited to the mighty @dandq.bsky.social! You know our greatest weakness is @lisahanawalt.bsky.social and Tsuge swag.
Tillie Walden has a new comic coming out! Charity and Sylvia from @dandq.bsky.social is a queer romance story set in 19th century Vermont. Tillie is one of our favourite artists and we feel honoured to work with her again to release an exclusive signed bookplate to accompany this release.
It's #MoominMonday, who doesn't need a coffee? But we'd certainly never be so cranky as to call Nibling awful!
Don’t forget: our Fall 2026 catalog is up and running on the D&Q website! Browse at the link in our bio and swipe for a rundown of the latest from our stellar cartoonists
