Bedside Press was a comics publishing company founded in 2014 by Hope Nicholson and based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.[1] Founded in 2014, Bedside Press published a diverse range of comic and prose works including anthology collections like The Secret Loves of Geek Girls,[2] and historical reprints such as the adventures of Brok Windsor. Bedside Press also published new content by up-and-coming artists/writers, and established creators including Margaret Atwood,[3] Trina Robbins, and Roberta Gregory.
In November 2019, Bedside Press ceased operations after publisher Nicholson confessed to sexual misconduct and assault.[4]
