Boston Powers 4 to debut at MiniMICE
On August 28, the BCR will be exhibiting at “MiniMICE,” the outdoor version of MICE to be held at Starlight Square in Central Square Cambridge. Among the offerings will be all the recent BCR anthologies — including the new issue of BOSTON POWERS, number 4. This will be the public premiere of issue #4, and, thanks to our beloved pandemic, the comics show debut of the first three issues as well.
The first of three “Year 2” issues, Boston Powers 4 features another great cover by Kurt Ankeny, as well as 4 new stories featuring characters introduced in the first 3 issues:
“Sharkbus Shenanigans,” written by father-daughter writing team “The Minks,” with art by Mark Borok, offers the return of Worm Man and other characters from issue #1’s “The Superhero Battle of Prospect Hill.”
In “Revere Beach Clean Up” by Cassidy Sulaiman & Kit Whitecar, the superhero-vampire team-up, Sunbeam and Echo Wing, have a day at the beach where they encounter a sea serpent.
Juan R. Williams gives us the 2nd chapter of his Dream Dialusion series, “Savage Shadow in the Strand,” another exploration of fantasy & creativity played out in a superhero format (set in the Strand Theatre, Dorchester)
Boston artist Ashley introduced her superhero universe in short features in Boston Powers 2 & 3, and contributes her first full story, “Superhero Friends Forever: Metro Con” a rollicking adventure set in a fictional Boston comic on.
All four issues of BOSTON POWERS will be available at MiniMICE, with a cover price of $6 each, and special package deals for the show as well. The comic will soon be available at local comics shops and online, but for now you can get yours at Mini MICE (or through the Boston Powers Year 2 Kickstarter).
