Schoolyard scuffles. Seedy matinees. Run-ins with inept riot cops Representation Immobilized is an unflinching look through the smudged lenses of Rick Trembles' glasses at his early years in Montreal. Montreal punk legend and alternative cartoonist Rick Trembles was roommates with the editor of the influential zine Fish Piss where these autobiographical strips were first published. After a midnight move from a crumbling apartment Trembles gradually started going through his childhood belongings, which started triggering memories from his past. Worried about them fading from memory as time wore on, he took the opportunity to document them before they could vanish. One of his last entries in this series questioned the nature of selective memory, why certain inanities from one's past might resonate more than others, and why, no matter how hard you try, there's no guarantee you'll remember any particular event years down the line. The book also contains other autobiographical work from Trembles, created over his active 40 years.

A punk-rock celebration of pizza in all its gooey glory. Dive deep into the world of cheese-loving, crust-craving, sauce-savouring punks with award-winning cartoonist Cole Pauls. In Pizza Punks, Pauls pushes the limits of pizza devotion by exploring just how far an extremely dedicated punk might go to attain the cheesiest of pies. Backpack pizza? Sure. Couch pizza? Absolutely. Even mosh pizza isn't off-limits. Pineapple pizza, though? That's a little more controversial. This quirky graphic novel is served up hot and (not so) fresh by the author of Dakwäkãda Warriors, winner of the 2020 Indigenous Voices Award and nominee for two Doug Wright Awards and an Aurora Award. "The more pizza I ate, the more ideas I thought of. The more punk music I listened to, the more I wanted to incorporate that into it. It's kind of just a snowball effect." --Cole Pauls
