HOLMES INC. is the brainchild of Toronto comic book impresario Ty Templeton, instructor at the Toronto Cartoonists Workshop, a training ground for up-and-coming writers and artists. Contributors to the comic are students and alumni of the TCW, many of whom are graduates of Ty's famous Comic Book Bootcamp. With this project they've put to work what they've learned at the TCW to show off their skills, and created a great comic in the process.
The stories feature the descendants of the Holmes and Watson families, in the present day. Throughout the many decades since the Master Detective died in 1935, the descendants of Sherlock, Mycroft, and Watson have managed to keep their family together for generations, serving King, Queen, and country for nearly a century, as the agents of HOLMES INC.

Comics creator Fred Chao put together a small collection of humorous short stories from his love life. Starting off as comical reflections of elementary school crushes, house party hook-ups, and first relationships, these stories delve into themes of the responsibilities that come with age, inevitable life changes, nostalgia, and home.
New York Times contributing reviewer Douglas Wolk said of this book, "These stories about the places art and life intersect, and where they fly past each other, are honed down to details so sharp they pierce."

In a future hellscape that's happening right now, your favourite popstar is in a whole heap of trouble, stolen goods glowing in his sweaty hands! What's his secret, bub? Who's good? Who's bad? And who could stand to be inbetween?
