Oni Press and Mad Cave Studios are leading the charge in March for new series debuts. I'm interested the most in Patrick Horvath's Free for All for Oni Press. Since finally getting to read Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, Horvath has been on my radar and I'm eager to see what he comes up with next. With Mad Cave, on the other hand, it's always exciting to see the publisher continuing to put out new miniseries consistently.

Check out the full lineup of upcoming trade paperbacks and hardcovers from indie comics publishers here!

Here's the big one just like every month. If there's one thing I'll always tell people who are getting into comics, it's that you should keep an eye out for the smaller publishers when looking for trades and hardcovers. Drawn & Quarterly and Fantagraphics are my go-to when I want to dive into something a bit more artsy and far away from the usual mask and cape stuff. Skim through this selection and you're bound to catch something that piques your more unique interests.
