The penultimate @okcomics.bsky.social Graphic Novel Club is on 27.10.25 from 7pm at The Brew Society Leeds🎃

The Crow is a dark, poetic, and deeply emotional graphic novel — one of the most haunting works from the 80's indie comics scene.

A modern, heartfelt take on a classic creation story, DROME sees humanity born, and thrust in and out of violence by the overarching interference of the gods.

Some of the most inventive use of panel layout and manipulation I’ve ever seen in comics.

We finally have our stock of DROME by @jesselonergan.bsky.social‼️ Our copies come with an exclusive signed print too!

Easily one of the best graphic novels of the year. As usual, Jesse pushes the boundaries of the comics format in this epic graphic novel.

Little Bird and Precious Metal are two of my favourite books. Darcy and Ian are a creative force to be reckoned with.

Oozing hyper detailed brutality, political dystopia, and heartbreaking character studies… You don’t want to miss these.

Stunning, sapphic love story (or revenge story, depending on what you take from it!) by one of our favourites, E.M. Carroll.

The art in this is jawdropping, perfectly bringing the gothic tone of the story to life.

A brutal fairytale.

Seasons by @remender.bsky.social, Paul Azaceta and @matlopes.bsky.social is one of the most unique comics I’m reading right now.

Beautifully illustrated fantasy/mystery, full of whimsy and intrigue. Genuine fun!

Helen of Wyndhorn by @tomking.bsky.social @bilquis.bsky.social @matlopes.bsky.social dominated the Eisner Awards, rightly so.

It’s a gorgeously crafted, lyrically written fantasy tale, with Conan the Barbarian vibes.

Our copies come with a signed print.

It doesn’t get more Autumnal than a @mikemignola.bsky.social book, right?

Bowling with Corpses is a stunning (of course) debut of his new universe, Lands Unknown.

If you’re a fan of Hellboy, dark fantasy, and his signature crisp black inks - you need this.

Seymour is a 27-year old exploitation film editor in the 1970’s, trying to juggle his art with being a pretty crappy dad/husband.
Sammy Harkham is arguably one of the best cartoonists of the moment. This book is one of my all time favourites.
Genuinely cinematic!

@williampotter.com is a local Leeds legend. The bassist of CUD comic book writer, and children’s activity book author. Will has done it all! Using his touring and music experience to inform the writing of GEEZER is what makes this indie comic so special.

@sxbond.bsky.social is a true comics icon. As DC Vertigo’s longtime editor, she shaped classics like The Invisibles, iZombie, Lucifer, Fables, and more. An award-winner, a visionary, and a hero to so many—myself included.

If you're a Leeds Arts Uni student, you'd really benefit from meeting Shelly.

@pjbond.offregister.press is one of my all time favourite illustrators. Philip has been working in comics since the DEADLINE magazine days of the late 80’s. Since then, he’s worked on Eve Stranger, The Invisibles, X-Statix & more! There aren’t many out there whose art oozes more style than Philip’s.

Later in the year we’ll also be taking pre-orders for Final Final Frontier. @ephk.bsky.social (mostly) safe for work spin on the classic space adventure (think Star Trek). Cannot wait for this! We’ll be the first retailers to stock this!!

Watch this space! (HA!)

Harpy is a brand-new tour de force from EPHK, a gorgeously brought to life science-fiction detective story you don’t want to miss.

@ephk.bsky.social is one of my all-time favourite creators!

SPECTATORS — a provocative, visually stunning graphic novel about politics, sex, death… and the power of watching. 👁️💥

Mature, gripping, and unflinching—this is Vaughan like you’ve never seen him before. Putting the graphic back in graphic novel.
