The Woodchipper gets a lovely review from @undertheradar.bsky.social: "Another great book from Ollmann [that] smartly balances minor modern sorrows with weirdness and humor."

A panel from Roaming by Jillian and Mariko Tamaki that captures trying to squeeze a takeout container into a too-full garbage can.
A panel from Roaming by Jillian and Mariko Tamaki. I love how it incidentally captures trying to squeeze a takeout container into a too-full garbage can -- a weirdly familar moment I've never seen in print.
So this broke me a bit
("Ducks" by Kate Beaton)
A gothic castle in the transylvanian mountains. A great bear of a man, waring a stovepipe hat and carrying a cane: "Now that you are my bride, you will never leave this castle!" His new bride replies "Wow! Your library is amazing!" He continues "Beyond the castle is a high wall with no gate, and beyond that is a deep. Dark forest with no path." She pulls a volume from a great bookcase, "I suppose it's my library too, now we're married." He goes on "The forest is crawling with ravenous wolves, malignant birds and the spirits of long-dead travellers." Ignoring him, carrying a pile of hardbacks "So many books! I can't believe My luck!" He has sprouted wings, claws and cloven hoofs. "When the sun sets, I transform into a wild beast and soar into the night, seized by a terrible bloodlust!" She sits, examining her books as he flies out the window "Ok. I'll stay here and read. See you in the morning"

Cover of DO ADMIT! THE MITFORD SISTERS AND ME by Mimi Pond
Really loved this graphic history (w/some memoir elements from the author/artist) about the British Mitford sisters, low-level aristocrats who interacted with many notable figures of the 20th century (Churchill, Hitler, Kennedys, De Gaulle, etc.)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitford...
The blue cover of Do Admit!, which features cameos of all six sisters and the author lying down looking up at them
22) Do Admit!: The Mitford Sisters and Me by Mimi Pond
I’m a sucker for a good biography and before this, I didn’t understand why people were so fascinated by the Mitford sisters. Now I do.

Graphic Novel Review: METADOGGOZ is a stylish comic that goes hard
In Bérénice Motais de Narbonne new book Metadoggoz, the cartoonist takes readers on an intense, trippy journey.
My first Adrian Tomine book, it’s so good! Crazy-good comedic timing amidst some occasionally quite depressing interior stories. Grounded premises with real people, in occasionally absurdly mundane situations. Hortisculpture is my favorite story of the lot
My new favorite game I learned from Lynda Barry

A writer sits on a large couch in the foyer of a publisher's office. An assistant approaches. Assistant. "Suzy is caught up in an editorial meeting but she shouldn't be long. Can I get you a triple vodka and tonic while you wait?" Writer "You know it's 11 am, right?" Assistant "Yes, but I also know what she thinks of your latest draft." The assistant goes to get the drink adding " ... Actually, I'll get you a couple."
