D&Q has revealed the cover to Hark! a Vagrant their Kate Beaton collection. Just the other day, The Beat and another industry observer were chatting about this and that and we observed that no one does a comics author tour like D&Q. The fantastic response to the Chester Brown tour being an example of that. Fantagraphics is the only company that even comes close.
Given that Beaton already draws giant lines and fervent acolytes, we expect this book tour to be one of the biggest ever.
Heidi MacDonald is the founder and editor in chief of The Beat. In the past, she worked for Disney, DC Comics, Fox and Publishers Weekly. She can be heard regularly on the More To Come Podcast. She likes coffee, cats and noble struggle.
Excellent, can’t wait! My favourite online comic by a mile. Is there a definite release date for this!?
Can’t wait for this!

It has got to be easier to promote a fantastic cartoonist like Kate Beaton than a creepy weirdo talking about his prostitution fetish.
Huzzah!
