We’re announcing Spring 2024 titles! Next up is Oba Electroplating Factory by Yoshiharu Tsuge, translated by Ryan Holmberg. Oba Electroplating Factory is a captivating portrait of mid-century Japan in its most unglamorous nooks and crannies.

We’re announcing Spring 2024 titles! Get excited for Raw Sewage Science Fiction by Marc Bell. Canadian treasure Marc Bell returns with another gorgeous, confounding comic that redefines how an art book can tell a story and how a graphic novel can be an object first and story second. Raw Sewage Science Fiction is about making art and interpreting the results as autobiography. The process is a series of indignities, bubble wrapped frames, unpaid invoices, art lost through neglect or in the mail.

With 2022 coming to a close, let’s take stock of what an outstanding year this has been for D+Q. This year we published bestselling titles by Tom Gauld and Nick Drnaso, and released the graphic memoir of the decade, Kate Beaton’s Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands. Our books found glowing praise in The New Yorker, New York Times, and NPR, to name a few.
