The thermometer has plunged in the past week, so: with the chill of winter approaching, it’s clearly time for spring! Avery Hill Publishing has revealed what’s coming in Spring 2026.

Was That Normal?

by Alex Potts
Moving to a new town and having to figure out a new social life is tough. That’s what Alex Pott’s protagonist Phillip is faced with. This book takes us inside his head in a funny contemporary meditation on finding friends and relationships as an adult, and how absolutely, completely awkward it is to be a competent well-socialized human. Pick this one up if you’re reading Dan Clowes or Jason.

Oracles

by Olivia Sullivan
Who isn’t feeling some ennui about the present moment? Olivia Sullivan’s Oracles starts out living in that very moment — and then takes us through the process of giving it all up in a meditative exploration of the nature all around us. This absolutely lovely debut is a wonderful escape that we’re all needing right now! It’s perfect for readers who love comics by Linnea Sterte and Michael DeForge.

Infinite Wheatpaste: Universe. Sol. Remote

by L. Pidge
We were thrilled to publish the first volume of L. Pidge’s Ignatz-nominated Infinite Wheatpaste series last year, and here comes volume two: now with even more robots, a human-ape hybrid, and a newly minted goddess. I think these galaxy-spanning stories that feel comfortable and personal are absolutely charming!

Orlando

by Virginia Woolf and Jules Scheele
Orlando is our publisher Ricky Miller’s favorite Virginia Woolf novel, and we’re excited to be partnering with one of the UK’s most prestigious queer graphic novelists to transform it to comics format. And obviously this novel with an immortal protagonist full of gender play is a perfect fit for comics readers — we know that people are going to love reading this classic story in a brightly-colored, gorgeously illustrated new format.
