This has been a particularly busy month at my workplace. Staff shortages due to COVID. Staff (those who have not been sick, including me) have been working double or extra shifts to fill those gaps. Still, there's always sunshine after the rain. Meaning, there's nothing quite like the thrill of seeing a new book arrive from the printer. Even though work began later on Batrisha and the Creepy Caretaker than Emile Mercier: A Selection of Cartoons, it was Dillon Naylor's book that arrived first this month.

Comicoz is Nat Karmichael's publishing imprint. Nat is committed to preserving a permanent collection of Australian comic and comic strips. He feels that there is a need to recognise comics' contribution to and depiction of Australian culture.
Nat Karmichael.
Since 2011, Nat has self-published over twelve comic-related books and was Publisher-Editor of Oi Oi Oi! -- the last series of nationally-distributed comic books of original stories to appear on Australian newsstands. He is a member of the Australian Cartoonists Association and edited the Association's journal Inkspot for 14 issues from late 2015. For numerous years he was the Lead Judge in the Ledger of Honour Awards for the Comic Arts Awards of Australia (formerly the Ledgers). These days Nat dreams of retiring from his occupation as a Clinical Nurse in the Psychiatric Emergency Centre in Queensland's largest public hospital, so that he can spend more time with his long-suffering wife and their six children and fourteen grandchildren. And perhaps publish some more comic-related books.
