This weekend it's Comic Arts Brooklyn in Williamsburg and here's a look at the books that will be debuting. Thanks to all the contributing publishers and cartoonists for supplying the info and lightening our wallets. Because there were so many new and exciting books I'm splitting this into two parts. Look for part two tomorrow!

Minneapolis based 2D Cloud is an experimental comics publisher that's looking to grow in 2015. They've added Blaise Larmee as Marketing Director and Melissa Carraher as Publicist. Larmee is, of course, a cartoonist of some repute himself. In the past they've put out acclaimed works by Anna Bongiovanni, Mark Connery and Noah van Sciver.

It's that time of year when we start thinking about NEXT year, and publishers nveil their schedules. And few unveilings are as pretty as those from Nobrow—their books are routinely gorgeous and display a level of artistry few other publishers can match. ANd next year's line-up (through August) are as gorgeous as you'd expect. Among the goodies: a full color expansion of Sam Bosma's award winning Fantasy Basketball, and the print debut of Jen Lee, whose webcomics Thunderpaw we've long been fans of. The latter is part of a relaunch of Nobrow's 17X23 line of "pamphlets"—24 pages long and priced at $5.95. The line also includes two french full length graphic novels. Definitely some good reading to come.

Exhibitors at Comic Arts Brooklyn this weekend were kind enough to send me listings of their books—as usual there is something for everyone. I received so many listing I'm dividing this into two parts. Many thanks to the creators who took the time to send me news of their work. It looks to be a very exciting show.  Enjoy!
