But I hear you asking – hey Julia, what can I get my mitts on that no one else has seen yet? Well, dear reader, D+Q is debuting five titles at this year’s San Diego Comic Con. Stop by the Drawn & Quarterly booth 1629 to check out extra special early copies of Dirty Plotte: The Complete Julie DoucetBerlin by SDCC Special Guest Jason Lutes, Coyote Doggirl by Lisa Hanawalt, SDCC Special Guest Aminder Dhaliwal’s Woman World, and the first Moomin story ever, The Moomins and the Great Flood by Tove Jansson.


Since you can get your beautiful Berlins and Woman Worlds signed any day of the con, we won’t have bookplates for those titles, but if you’ve got your eye on a Dirty Plotte or a Coyote Doggirl you are decidedly in luck – Lisa Hanawalt and Julie Doucet have come through with gorgeous bookplates.

Plus, peep this great stash of bookplates for our recent titles, including Killing and Dying by Adrian Tomine, Love That Bunch by Aline Kominsky-Crumb, The Unquotable Trump by R. Sikoryak, and Sabrina by Nick Drnaso. We’re giving you a lot of reasons to get excited for SDCC.  See you on the con floor!
