it came from underground operates on the unceded and traditional territories of the Musqueam (xʷməθkʷəy̓əm), Squamish (Sḵwx̱wú7mesh), and Tsleil-Waututh (səl̓ilwətaɬ) Nations. We are grateful for their land stewardship and support the rights of Indigenous self determination.
The purpose of this press is to bring together folks and weirdos who enjoy the finer (creepier) things of life. We are the comix and prose renegades, the ones who enjoy stories about eating peoples’ eyes, strange and haunting small towns, and alternate worlds where things are not quite right. Oh, we especially enjoy it when things are a little bit sexy, a little bit funny, or otherwise tap into a primal emotion.
We want to uplift the voices of novice writers and artists and give them an opportunity to hone and expand their craft. We want to create a community of artists and writers that can band together and make great things.
This is a press to create the art and writing that we want to see in the world, and is looking for people to support that vision.
