Nominated for the prestigious Angoulême Festival Grand Prix, Vanistendael creates comics 'about life as it really is'. A beautiful, unexpected story, told from the heart, which reaches far beyond the love story that originally inspired it.

Grip drags the reader into the dark and humorous world of cult artist David Shrigley. The drawings, which are all new, are a day book for the new millennium. Grip is the largest collection of Shrigley's work published to date, and includes 16 colour illustrations, and an Afterword by Patricia Ellis. A compendium of art forms and ideas, pocketbooks offer a contemporary generalist vision of Scottish culture.

From Jason Little, author of the Ignatz Award-winning Shutterbug Follies, comes another exciting "bubblegum noir" graphic novel, originally serialized in the acclaimed webcomic Bee! Eighteen-year-old Bee has finally saved up enough to embark on her long-planned cross-country bicycle trip. However, she doesn't make it very far before disaster leaves her stranded at a motel. Her hormones surge when she meets a misunderstood young artist on a mission to "upgrade" the banal "artwork" that hangs on the walls of every motel room. Taking a job there as a housekeeper, Bee snoops around in the motel's dirty laundry and finds herself entangled in a scary drug deal gone dangerously wrong. Featuring gorgeous artwork balancing grit with cuteness, Motel Art Improvement Service explores crime, young love, and the purpose of art, in a story that's equal parts thrilling, funny, and sexy.
