Awhooooo! Let's fall in love!

Today we celebrate three graphic novels about lovable monsters:

Debuting today is the buzzy new supernatural romance from Balazs Lorinczi: Wolfpitch! Discover the book that Lumberjanes co-creator Shannon Watters calls a celebration of "the power of transformations, second chances, and the joyful noise of finding your people." 

Coming next month, we'll join a spunky middle-schooler investigating the beasts of American folklore in Deja Ross Speaks to Freaks, then gear up for more hijinks from our favorite cartoon black-metal band in Belzebubs: No Rest for the Wicked, both in July!

Rip-roaring rock & romance with Wolfpitch, out TODAY!

From the creator of the GLAAD Award-nominated Doughnuts and Doom comes a tale of music, milkshakes, making up, and making out!

Izzy’s a bass-playing werewolf. Geraldine’s the ghost of an amazing jazz pianist. Delilah’s the meanest drummer in town. They’d be the perfect trio to win the Battle of Bands...except Geraldine can't play a solo since she passed away, and Izzy and Delilah are at each other’s throats at every opportunity. Can they work through their problems to win the competition, or will they be defeated by Delilah's ex-band and their villainous frontman, Dylan?

Sparks will fly, milkshakes will melt, and ears will ring in this delicious queer tale!

Coming Next Month: Belzebubs: No Rest for the Wicked!

It's a three-ring black-metal Family Circus in this second hilarious collection of the acclaimed webcomic.

Can aspiring black metal icon and stay-at-home dad Sløth handle his fierce wife, wicked kids, a very lively mother-in-law, a very deceased father-in-law, his dysfunctional band, their mounting debts, and still achieve his dream? Probably not, but that sure as Hell won’t stop him from trying.

Features a foreword by Max Sarin (Giant Days) and an afterword by Mikael Åkerfeldt from legendary metal band Opeth!
