Hello friendly Bsky people. Officially we're here now, and hoping to share news about the graphic novels we publish, and talk about publishing. Really hoping this doesn't turn into another billionaire's data scraping buffet.

CBC BOOKS selected 2 of our graphic novels in their Recommended Fall Comic Books list. Alberta Comics Love, & Resilient. See the list here bit.ly/41N3EDe

There's a couple mistakes, Love was edited by Alexander, Shea, Hartley & Emily.

Love cover designed by @katsimmers.bsky.social
The cover for Alberta Comics Love designed by Kat Simmers, next to old pictures of Alexander, Shea and Jillian. The mistakes by CBC Books are bad. But, it's still nice that they are writing about comic books. The cover to Resilient is next to pictures of George and Vinz. They are wearing hats. The cover features a woman showing her butt and some side boob while wielding a shiny samurai sword. There's fire too, looks dangerous. Someone could get hurt.
