Portrait of a Body
by Julie Delporte
As she examines her life experience and traumas with great care, Delporte faces the questions about gender and sexuality that both haunt and entice her. Deeply informed by her personal relationships as much as queer art and theory, Portrait of a Body is both a joyous and at times hard meditation on embodiment―a journey to be reunited with the self in an attempt to heal pain and live more authentically.

Mary Tyler Moorehawk
by Dave Baker
A compilation of long-lost gee-whiz adventure comics in which the world's strangest family fights to avert Armageddon...and a bundle of magazine articles from a dystopian future where physical property is banned and entertainment is broadcast on dishwashers. It's a document-based detective story that weaves back and forth between worlds, touching on everything from corporate personhood to mutant shark-men to the meaning of fandom and reality itself. It's a show you don't remember...and a book you won't forget.
