Highwater Books was a small but influential independent comic book publisher based in Somerville, MA, noted for its arty editorial direction and production values under publisher Tom Devlin. Highwater began in 1997 and folded November 2004 due to financial pressure.

Artists Published

The press was also know for its anthology Coober Skeeber, a prolific output of silkscreened posters and promotional materials, a loose association with Fort Thunder (where a number of Highwater artists resided) and Jordan Crane (publisher of NON), distribution of Jef Czekaj's Hypertruck (née R2D2 Is an Indie Rocker), and a few non-comic works of fiction, including a trio of books by Camden Joy.
