Pet Peeves Launch Party With Nicole Goux

We're delighted to welcome the very talented Nicole Goux all the way from LA to the shop to celebrate the launch of her brand new comic from Avery Hill Publishing, Pet Peeves! Nicole will be here on Thursday 27th April 2023, from 7-9pm.

Nicole most recently released Forest Hills Bootleg Society with Dave Baker, an excellent YA comic that made it onto our Best of 2022 list! Her fabulous drawing has also created the likes of Shadow of the Batgirl (DC Comics) and F**k Off Squad (Silver Sprocket). Goux's latest endevaour from Avery Hill, moves away from her collobarative projects to tell a much more personal story in her first solo debut graphic novel. Here's some words about it from the publisher:

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. This debut solo graphic novel from breakout author Nicole Goux explores the struggles of a young artist - haunted not only by debt and society, but by more sinister (though adorable) canine forces.

Join us on Thursday 27th April 2023, from 7pm to meet Nicole and grab a copy of Pet Peeves. You can pre-order a signed copy of it from our website for mail order or collection by clicking here.
