Octopus Pie: The Complete Series Box Set - Coming in September 2023!
I’m delighted to announce that you’ll soon be able to collect the whole Octopus Pie series in a neat, handsome box! Coming September 19th from me & Image Comics. You can read the full press release here.
Tumblr media
The boxes, along with all 5 Image volumes, feature new artwork and - perhaps most excitingly - a custom insert that aligns them together on the shelf! Finally, my youthful page formatting decisions, corrected and… vindicated??
Tumblr media
If you’ve been trying to hunt these books down for a while, you’ll be happy to know this release coincides with a REPRINT of Vol 1. Check the press release to find a comic shop that’s got your back, or pre-order the whole set from a major retailer.
What does this mean if you want the box, but already own the Image books? Well, apart from the clout of being an original OP head, I’ll have a limited but mighty supply of empty boxes for you. I’ll offer these online in the near future - more info when I’ve got it!
Tumblr media
It’s really fun to have a new OP thing in the mix, and after months of planning and prototyping, I’m so pleased to share what we’ve made. Thank you for all the love, 16 years on!

I remember Meredith Gran (of Octopus Pie) very briefly had an apron with this image on it for sale. The best I could find, for YEARS, was a low-res image from a single panel in one of the comics, so tonight I decided to remake it in higher-res. The world needs it.

Tielle Sétoise (Octopus Pie)
Tumblr media
I spent a good chunk of my childhood near Sète, in Montpellier, where mys sister was born. I even had the singing accent and all. But until quite recently, when Jules and I travelled to Carcassonne and changed train in her home-town --and the train was delayed-- I had never tasted the local specialty! It is for the best though; how wonderful to make such delicious discoveries! La tielle is a more-ish pie, filled with a fragrant octopus and tomato ragoût. It is so good it makes one forget about delayed trains after a long journey. It is often sold as individual pies, but can be made into a large, generous one. And thus I baked this beautiful Tielle Sétoise! Happy Friday!
Ingredients (serves 4):
1 tablespoon yeast
1/2 tablespoon plain flour
1/4 cup lukewarm water
2 cups plain flour
1 cup strong white flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon fleur de sel or sea salt flakes
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1/4 cup Muscat de Rivesaltes (or other sweet white wine)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup lukewarm water
2 tablespoons olive oil
a good pinch saffron threads
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground chilli
1 teaspoon Herbes de Provence 
1 large onion
1 large garlic clove, minced
2 heaped tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup Muscat de Rivesaltes (or other sweet white wine)
4 Whole Peeled Tomatoes + 1/3 cup of their juice
1/2 teaspoon fleur de sel or sea salt flakes
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
815 grams/1.8 pound cooked Octopus 
1 teaspoon caster sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon olive oil
In a small bowl, combine yeast and flour. Stir in lukewarm water until well-blended. Allow to sit, about 10 to 15 minutes until it starts bubbling a bit. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine plain flour, strong white flour, paprika and fleur de sel. Give a good stir.
Dig a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in yeast mixture. Add tomato paste, and stir with a wooden spoon, gradually adding Muscat de Rivesaltes, oil and lukewarm water, until the dough comes together. You might not need all of the water.
Knead dough for a few minutes onto the counter-top, and pop back into the bowl. Cover with a tea towel and allow to rise, a couple of hours.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil over medium heat in a large, deep skillet. Add saffron threads, and cook, about 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high, and add paprika, chilli and Herbes de Provence. Fry, a couple of minutes more.
Peel and finely chop onion. Stir into the skillet, and cook, about 3 minutes, until softened. Stir in garlic; cook, 1 minute more.
Add tomato paste, and cook out, 1 minute.
Deglaze with Muscat.
Finely chop Whole Peeled Tomatoes, and stir them into the skillet, along with their juice. Season with fleur de sel and black pepper, and bring to a slow boil. Simmer, 5 minutes.
Cut Octopus into small chunks, and stir into the tomato sauce. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer, another 15 minutes, until the sauce has thickened. Stir in caster sugar until dissolved.
Remove from the heat, and allow to cool completely.
Preheat oven to 220°C/430°F.
Lightly grease a pie plate with olive oil.
Punch dough down and divide into two portions (about one-third/two-thirds). Roll out both portions into circles. Fit largest dough circle into prepared pie plate, letting it overhang on the edges. Prick the bottom with a fork.
Generously fill with cooled Octopus and tomato ragoût. Lightly dampen the edges with water, and place dough lid on top, pressing firmly to seal. Trim off excess dough, and crimp.
In a small cup, combine paprika and olive oil, stirring until well-blended.
Generously brush the top of the pie with paprika oil.
Place in the hot oven, and bake at 220°C/430°F, 30 to 35 minutes until beautifully golden brown.
Serve Tielle Sétoise hot or warm, with dressed Mesclun, and a glass of chilled rosé or dry white wine, like Côtes de Provence, and perhaps some music from Sète's most famous artist (and a favourite of mine), Georges Brassens!

New Octopus Pie!
I repeat, new Octopus Pie! 
It’s a lot (56 pages!), and I think I need time to process it, but it’s quite good!
