Our spring 2023 books are:

Pet Peeves by Nicole Goux

Bobbie’s life is going nowhere fast. She’s working at a bar, wanting to play music but never having the time or energy. The only bright spot is her dog – always cheerful, always cuddly, and always there for her.

As the relentless day-in, day-out of work piles up, music and roommates and social plans begin to seem less and less important as Bobbie struggles to make rent and have any time to be creative. The only thing she has time for outside her job is her dog… and her dog is going to do everything he can to keep it that way…

Macbeth by K.Briggs

With Macbeth, K. Briggs completes their adaptation of Shakespeare’s dark and bloody masterpiece… an early portion of which won the Graphic Shakespeare Competition in 2016. This book is a vivid graphic novel adaptation of the play, faithful to the original text while providing a new lavish interpretation.

When three witches prophecy to Macbeth that he will one day become the King of Scotland, an epic of unhappiness, treachery, and blood begins. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth’s ambitions lead to an ever-growing path of murder as Macbeth grows ever-closer to the throne. But where will it all end? Only with death – and with madness.

Briggs, as a Shakespeare reader (and performer) from age twelve, brings their lifelong love of the Bard to this work.

Big Ugly by Ellice Weaver

Work, health, family – Mel feels like her life is just circling endlessly as she begins to renew her relationship to her brother in this vibrant graphic novel.

Mel isn’t going anywhere – except to work every day. But when she offers the spare room in her apartment to her struggling brother, everything she loves and hates about wanting to live up to the expectations of her family becomes part of her every day again.

It turns out that even as adults, living with your sibling brings back the dynamics of tween rivalries. As Mel tries to rebalance things with her brother, she navigates how to offer help to someone who doesn’t want to need it.

There are some stunning pages of original mixed media art by K. Briggs that are available as add-ons!

You can view these larger on the campaign page.

Here’s what Avery Hill’s Ricky Miller has to say about the spring 2023 line-up:

“It’s one of the most exciting line-ups we’ve ever had, with a strong group of books
that are all wildly different but totally complimentary and true to the things that Avery Hill prides ourselves on; exciting new talent, strong storytelling and stunning and innovative artwork. Nicole Goux is a bright up-and-coming star of both the indie and superhero scenes and long been on our list of creators that we wanted to work with. Briggs we’ve been talking to about various projects for years and finally managed to find the right one in this astonishing adaptation of one of the great texts of world literature. Finally, we’ve been trying to lure Ellice back into the comics world for some time and have been blown away by every page she’s delivered; if you don’t know her work, you’re about to discover your new favourite artist.”
