Volume 1 - 1st printing.
Story and art by Meredith Gran.
In this first collected volume of the OCTOPUS PIE series, we follow grumpy twenty-something Eve and her stoner roommate Hanna as they navigate post-college life. They'll take on crazed childhood rivals, troubling art scenes, the discomfort of exes, and maybe even... friendship? All this and more in the fictional, totally made-up city of Brooklyn.
Softcover (Horizontal), 9-in. x 6 1/2-in., 272 pages, B&W.
NOTE: "Well paced and grounded, ranging from funny ha-ha to odd observational humor, OCTOPUS PIE's ultimate hooks are its flawed, but genuine characters." - BOOKLIST

Volume 2 - 1st printing.
Story and art by Meredith Gran.
The Brooklyn stories of love, madness, nostalgia, and displeasing music continue in this second OCTOPUS PIE collection. Eve and Hanna have each other's backs as they navigate the emotional pitfalls of twenty-something life, but there's chaos and confusion to spare.
Softcover (Horizontal), 9-in. x 6 1/2-in., 184 pages, B&W.
NOTE: "It's hard to say where the strength of OCTOPUS PIE really is because Meredith can juggle so many things so well-the humor, the natural touch in the dialogue, the relatability of the characters in the world that she has created. There is a complex, empathetic sort of quality to that world and you feel rather at home in it." - Kate Beaton, Hark!
