2016 roundup

We're not gonna lie, this year has been awful in various ways and we can't wait for it to be over. With sorrow we look back at the sad and much too early losses of Geneviève Castrée, with whom we had the pleasure to exchange stamps and even publish a short story, and also of Alvin Buenaventura, a supportive publishing colleague we looked up to.

But for kuš! itself it has been quite ok in general. We've organized and taken part in 7 different exhibition in Latvia and around Europe, and we've attended 18 festivals around the world. For details, just head over to our events page.

Gladly next to that we still managed to put out some books... Over the year we published a total of 744 pages. If you bind them all together, you get quite a fat book, but for your convenience we divided these comics in three anthologies and 9 mini kuš!.

Here are all the titles in chronological order. In case you were hiding behind a rock and missed the whole kuš! year, you can now buy them all in a special kuš! 2016 package deal ($77 including worldwide shipping costs and a bunch of free stickers, postcards and bookmarks). Have a look at each title published with links to the artists and to reviews on our site in the š! section and the mini kuš! section.Not to miss anything in future and to support us you can get a kuš! subscription.

2017 will be the 10 year anniversary of kuš! and we have a lot of exciting titles lined up already. Soon we'll tell more about the January releases. Meanwhile, stay safe and have a colorful new year!
