Montreal-based publisher of the world's most brilliant cartoonists and their comics, graphic novels and art! https://linktr.ee/dandq
My tribute to genius cartoonist Edward Steed-- out in @lareviewofbooks.bsky.social. "The 'homunculus' comics can be read as embodiments of the *actual truth* of the male self, one that is usually concealed or otherwise disguised"

A pen and ink drawing. Panel One: A woman sits in a chair reading happily in a book-filled room. A voice offstage says "You can't survive on books alone" The woman replies "Maybe I can!" Panel Two: "How?" asks the voice "I don't know yet, but I'm sure the answer will be in one of my books." Says the woman Panel Three: Caption: However The book is filled with yet more books. A skull sits on the chair. It says "I regret nothing!"

Reading DO ADMIT! and chatting with @davidharper.bsky.social about it was such a wonderful experience. I came in already loving Mimi Pond’s previous graphic novels and this amplified my admiration tenfold. So much story told with so much visual invention. @dandq.bsky.social

Title: Where writers really get their ideas. A writer, holding a note in his outstretched hand approaches a cart in the park. The front of the cart reads 'Fresh ideas' and a colourful umbrella shades the server who is reaching deep into the body of the cart (much as an ice-cream vendor might) and saying: "I'm all out of mind-blowing concepts and heart-rending narratives, but I've got an acerbic observation, an unexpected outcome and a couple of amusing notions."

Illustrator Raymond Biesinger has experienced a range of good and bad deeds from honest and not-so-trustworthy clients and non-clients. But the one act of misanthropy that bugs him the most is being ripped off.

New to CBH's Best of 2025
Cannon by Lee Lai @dandq.bsky.social
Cannon will unquestionably get the "slice-of-life" label, but that undersells the actualization of the lives that Lai builds here, the kind of ear and eye for life that makes you wonder if this fiction could actually be autobiography.
Cover of the new book of cartoons about science by Tom Gauld: Physics for Cats
It's #Caturday! Here's Physics for Cats, by @tomgauld.bsky.social. True, not every cartoon features cats, but every science-based cartoon is hilarious. Math freaks can figure out the ratio of cat to non-cat cartoons in the book.
