Drawn & Quarterly’s Fall 2025 catalog includes six new works by an eclectic array of creators, both new and familiar.

Do Admit: The Mitford Sisters and Me is Mimi Pond’s meticulously researched biography of the six Mitford sisters, the talented and opinionated daughters of an impecunious baron who were famous for their style and wit but had a messy public split over some of the sisters’ support of fascism. Even if they hadn’t had such strong personalities, the sisters would be fascinating because of the circles in which they moved and their involvement in so many of the movements of the 20th century. Pond, the creator of Over Easy (which D&Q will re-release as a paperback on September 16) and The Customer Is Always Wrong, contrasts the lives of the Mitfords, in their crumbling estate, with her own more prosaic existence in Southern California in the 1960s and 1970s. The 444-page hardcover will be released on September 16 with an MSRP of $29.95.

True Colors: Growing Up Weird in the 90s is Elise Gravel’s deep dive into her childhood diaries as she tells a story that is both nostalgic (cassette mixtapes, trips to the mall) and relatable (struggling with friendships and ADHD). Gravel was the kind of kid who was more interested in drawing than dating, and the book depicts how making art helped her to feel comfortable in her own skin. She is now a successful graphic novelist whose Arlo & Pips #2 was nominated for a 2022 Eisner Award. True Colors is targeted at young adults and will be released on August 19 with an MSRP of $18.95.

Physics for Cats, by Tom Gauld, is a new collection of his cartoons for New Scientist, a sideways look at science that includes math puzzles for conspiracy theorists, what happens to artificial intelligence when it reaches adolescence, and the question of what happens to a cat in a wormhole. The 160-page hardcover will be released on October 7 with an MSRP of $21.96. And in more good news for Gauld fans, D&Q will publish a paperback edition of You’re All Just Jealous of My Jetpack on August 5 with an MSRP of $15.95.

Cannon, by Lee Lai, starts with the eponymous main character waking up in the wreckage of the restaurant where she works, and which she has just trashed. It’s like something out of the horror films she used to watch with her best friend, Trish, and it’s Trish who pulls her out again, as the once-stoic Cannon starts to buckle under life’s pressures. Lai’s 2021 graphic novel, Stone Fruit (see “Fantagraphics Unveils 2021 List”), was shortlisted for the Lambda Literary Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Award, and Lai was chosen as one of the National Book Foundation’s 5 Under 35 Award. Cannon will be published as a 304-page hardcover on September 9 with an MSRP of $29.95.

Yokai: Shigeru Mizuki’s Supernatural Parade, translated and annotated by Zack Davisson, is a companion volume to last year’s Yokai: The Art of Shigeru Mizuki (see “Fall 2024”). Like that book, this is a hardcover, full-color, horizontal-format presentation of Mizuki’s artwork, While many of the supernatural creatures may be familiar from Mizuki’s manga, this book focuses on his non-narrative artwork, with 100 full-page illustrations of different yokai alongside their biographies. Yokai: Shigeru Mizuki’s Supernatural Parade will go on sale on November 11 with an MSRP of $44.95.

The Weight, by Melissa Mendes, draws on the diary of Mendes' late grandfather for this story of a girl growing up in an abusive household, contrasting the simple pleasures of childhood and the beauty of rural life with the harsh realities of Depression-era America. The graphic novel grew out of Mendes’ self-published comics, which were nominated for an Ignatz Award. The 580-page paperback will be released on September 2 with an MSRP of $19.95.

Also in the D&Q lineup for Fall 2025: Reel Politik, by Nathan Gielgud, a satirical tale about a group of cinephiles who take over a small-town movie theater (November, $18.00); artist Raymond Biesinger’s advice book 9 Times My Art Has Been Ripped Off (October, $18.95); new editions of Tove Jansoon’s Moomin chapter books, Comet in Moominland and Finn Family Moomintroll (August, $24.95) and a new paperback edition of Yoshihiro Tatsumi’s memoir A Drifting Life (November, $35.95).
