Drawn & Quarterly announced at Comic-Con that it will publish Over Easy, a 400- to 600-page graphic novel memoir of cartoonist and TV writer Mimi Pond.  It chronicles her coming of age in the late 1970s, set against the then up and coming world of punk-rock. 

Pond's cartoons have appeared in the Los Angeles Times and Seventeen Magazine, but she is probably better known for her TV writing, including “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire”, the first full-length episode of The Simpsons; and work for Designing Women and Peewee’s Playhouse. 

“Mimi Pond has been doing comics for the past twenty, thirty years but she’s never done long form comics,” said D&Q Associate Publisher Peggy Burns.  “She met Tom Devlin, our creative director, here last year and sent in pages.  They were wonderful; they floored us.”
