Diamond Book Distributors will exclusively distribute Pegamoose Press products to North American and international book markets. Distribution to the comic book specialty market is handled exclusively by Diamond Comic Distributors.
Pegamoose Press was founded by comic book creators Troy Little (Cult of the Lamb, Rick & Morty) and Brenda Hickey (Aggretsuko, My Little Pony) to test the waters of crowdfunding for their books Halls of the Turnip King, Angora Napkin: The Golden McGuffin and Butterfly House. After three successful Kickstarter campaigns and some industry award nominations, they're expanding to publish titles by others, starting with a B&W fantasy epic, Orchard of the Tame, a debut graphic novel from Nick Cross and Marlo Meekins.
Hickey said, "Troy and I are excited to take our experience with publishing and push it forward with Orchard of the Tame. We are looking forward to partnering with Diamond Distribution for this next step and seeing our line of books emerge onto the North American comic and book markets."
Diamond Book Distributors president Tony Lutkus said, "We love the whimsical and diverse catalog of Pegamoose. From young adult and middle grade fantasy to award-winning magical mysteries and epic fantasy, Troy and Brenda have created something very special. Diamond Books can't wait to introduce their first book, this November."
