Years on Bold Street
We print the ones nobody else would
The press in the back room is a 1962 Heidelberg and it is the reason this is a publisher and not just a shop. Four titles a year, short runs, paid up front so the artist is not waiting on our cash flow.
If you have twenty finished pages and no idea what to do with them, bring them in on a Tuesday.
What we print
Four titles, all of them ongoing, none of them about a man in a cape.
Night Bus

Sunday League
21 Mar 2026A comedy about a pub football team that is not very good and knows it.
Low Tide
