2019
Our first book of 2019 is nearly completed. MY SKIN IS BLACK UPON ME, MY BONES THEY BURN WITH HEAT, by Christian Johnson, is an “ontological odyssey” compiled over several years. MY SKIN IS BLACK is a photo book containing commentary, essays and interviews from Christian’s friends and life. Christian is a Bay Area native cinephile and director, who sees life through a very specific lens – this book lets you get a glimpse into his psyche and heart. Spanning over 250 pages, this book is our biggest yet, and we are so looking forward to sharing it.
Stay tuned for its pre-release and release show, likely in early January 2019.

Kitty Marm/Grumpy Bun
We just finished riso-ing this really cute comic! Our first ever time using orchid! This comic is not one but two in one! The first half is called Kitty Marmalade and is about a 20-something year old living at home trying to make it big (on Instragram). The second half is Grumpy Bun, about a barista at “Moonbucks” and all the sh*t he has to put up with day to day. We loved working on this and are so excited for everyone to see it.
