ABOUT SECONDS:

The highly anticipated new stand-alone, full-colour graphic novel from Bryan Lee O’Malley, author and artist of the hugely bestselling (and Toronto-set) Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series.
Seconds is a complex and novelistic stand-alone story about a young restaurant owner named Katie who, after being visited by a magical apparition, is given a second chance at love and to undo her wrongs. Fans new and old will love O’Malley’s bold and quirky style infused with his subtle, playful humour.
In Seconds, Bryan Lee O’Malley plays the angst of youth against the fabric of larger epics. In doing so, he enriches both. At long last, dear reader, one can dream of heroes and monsters and battles beyond this earth while contemplating the virtues of ‘having a thing’ in the grocery pantry. A great ride!”
—Guillermo del Toro“Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Seconds is adorable, haunting, funny, and beautiful. A perfect recipe for a great graphic novel.”
—Scott McCloud, author of Understanding Comics

Merry Christmas Toronto: Bringing Back the “Kim Pine” Toronto Shirt

TORONTO T-Shirt, featuring Kim Pine from the Scott Pilgrim series, now in stock. Mens' and Womens' sizes, $20, Beguiling exclusive.

Hey. Let’s be honest for a second here: Toronto’s had a pretty rough year.

We wanted to do something a little cool to remind us that there’s good in this city as well, that there’s positive stuff being put out into the world, and just maybe some folks are gonna wanna show a little hometown pride… or maybe you just like Scott Pilgrim?
