Founded in 2007, Koyama Press is a Toronto-based small press. Our mandate is to promote and support a wide range of emerging and established artists. Projects include comics, graphic novels, art books, and zines. We are known for our alternative edge and diverse range of titles that include a myriad of genres from autobiography to photography, from horror to humour, and more.
Koyama Press titles are distributed internationally by Consortium Book Sales and Distribution. They are available for purchase at finer comic book shops and book stores.
Please note that Koyama Press is currently not accepting submissions.
