An all new graphic novel from cartoonist Lara Kaminoff, starring JIMMY RUCKUS, the young rabble-rouser and trouble-maker who's on a mission to achieve greatness by fighting his way to the top! How To Pick A Fight is the perfect fractured fable about a scrappy kid who means well, but never quite gets it right.

The tenacious and stubborn young scrapper Jimmy Ruckus has plans to be the greatest wrestler in the world, and he's up for fighting anyone.

From his own family, his schoolwork, wild animals, sensitive artists, harddrinking pirates, and a heavyweight champ or two, he's challenging the world one small fight at a time! But can his hopes and dreams take him all the way to stellar success? Or will Jimmy have to learn to stop living his life fist-first?

Lara Kaminoff is a cartoonist and book-slinger living in Seattle with her beloved and their cat, Creeper. She’s inspired by an endless parade of podcasts, the magical world of fungi, brilliant friends, climbable trees, and danceable floors. Right now she’s probably talking too fast, thinking too hard or trying to fix something that ain’t broke.

FALL 2021

INTRODUCING TWENTY SEVEN Twenty Seven is a bold, new literary list to celebrate experimental writing in fiction and non fiction. It will launch in 2021 to champion breakthrough voices who have something important to say or a brilliant story to tell. This new list will appeal to a contemporary readership who want to read surprising, provocative and inspiring books. Nobrow has an established visual aesthetic in illustrated books and we’re excited to bring this to the form of the novel by merging with authors who love to experiment with the form of the content.

Twenty Seven’s aim is to become home to the next great writing heroes who are unafraid to stand out from the crowd, and find their feet with an independent publisher equally eager to make bold decisions. Our small and curated list will grab readers and champion dynamic fiction and non-fiction writing.

In twelve arresting stories spanning genres from memoir to historical fiction and magical realism, new and emerging international authors investigate the subject of censorship through an array of lenses: as subjugation, erasure, or immunity. Whether it be recovering from an attempt to end one’s life or being deprived of life’s liberties, these remarkable perspectives get to the heart of what connects us, and ask the questions: What does it mean to be silenced, to be censored? Or perhaps, more importantly, what does it mean to break free?
