"Anzuelo is a gorgeous, post apocalyptic odyssey; I loved the story, and coupled with its exceptional illustrations, it was the most stunning graphic novel I read in 2024. Rios’s coming of age tale is one that’s unforgettable and I’m so excited for it to be our debut read!" - Dom
"A sweeping magical-realist coming-of-age story set after the apocalypse." — The New York Times

A gorgeous and brutal story that revolts against the notion of violence as the only response to a life without hope.

The Sea, secretly more complex than anyone imagined, rises one day. The horizon folds as the Sea absorbs the world and transforms everything that's been pulled inside it. Three kids find themselves unmoored and lost, but brought together by the physical and mental changes wrought by the tides and a desire to avoid harming any living creature.

Anzuelo is the new hand-watercolored graphic novel by the Eisner award-winning cartoonist Emma Ríos (Pretty Deadly, Mirror, I.D.), presented in a deluxe hardcover with archival quality 120gsm paper.
