Thanks for visiting our crowdfunding initiative! Dejects is now exclusively available from the publisher at blackeye.ca. 

Best known for his animated television series Jetcat, Tutenstein, and The Secret Saturdays, Jay Stephens has spent the last quarter-century telling stories-with-pictures in his own comic books (SIN, The Land of Nod, Atomic City Tales, Jetcat Clubhouse), alternative weekly strips (Oddville!), monthly kids magazines (Chick & Dee, Arrowhead), daily newspaper comics (Oh, Brother!), and picture books (Monsters!, Heroes!, Robots!, Freaky Fun Activities).

Over the years, many of those comics have been collected in several volumes: The Land of Nod Treasury, The Land of Nod Rockabye Book, Go Power!, Oddville, Jetcat Clubhouse... but what of those characters and pages and strips that didn’t fit in any collection? What became of the Dejects?

Lovingly coloured for this collection, Dejects is the resource for those odds and ends, and bits and bobs, from 1991–2019. That’s 136 pages, spanning 28 years worth of Jay’s unique and diverse comics, available here for the first time since their original appearances in print, and some for the very first time anywhere!

Including!

• The complete Nod strips from Toronto’s Exclaim Magazine
• All previous uncollected Captain Rightful (and the hapless Victim)
• The Nature Show webcomic
• Jungle Shi-Tzu
• Icky Animal
• Twerp
  And much, much more!

All in a beautiful full-colour, 5.75" x 8.25" 136-page, trade paperback, printed on luscious cream coloured uncoated paper with matte laminated cover.

Shipping in September, 2019. For Mature Readers, Only!
