Accessible Stories: Comics for the Working Class
At Feral Publications, we don't just see comic books as entertainment; we view them as a vital form of working-class literature. This medium—often created by blue-collar artists and focused on themes of power, survival, and community resistance—deserves to be accessible to everyone, regardless of their income.
Our reselling model is built on bringing that working-class consciousness directly to the medium, ensuring that financial barriers don't keep essential stories out of the hands of the people who need them. This is in both the comic books that we are making and the comic books that we are reselling.
1. The Dollar Bin Revolution
We scour the back channels to stock and resell a rotating selection of Dollar Bin Comics. These aren't just filler; they're an affordable, low-risk way to explore the history of the medium, discover weird gems, and simply read. No one should be priced out of the culture they helped create. The $1 price tag is a commitment: Comic books are for everyone.
2. Curated Resistance: Below Market Rate Trades
We understand that trade paperbacks and graphic novels are often the best way to get a complete story. That's why we meticulously curate a selection of crucial, genre-bending, and politically relevant trades. We then make these complete collections available at a below market rate.
This isn't a liquidation sale; it's an act of solidarity. We are dedicated to putting necessary, thought-provoking narratives on your bookshelf without demanding you empty your wallet for the privilege. Every book we house is an argument for a better world, available at a below market rate.
Reading is resisting. Laughing and having fun is resisting. We make sure the tools are cheap.
