Celebrate Minimum Page comics anthology tonight!

Tonight the Harvard Book Store will celebrate the release of its first-ever comics anthology, Minimum Paige. We’re also pretty sure this is the first comics anthology printed by an in-store robot, a print-on-demand machine named “Paige M. Gutenborg.” Yes, the future has well and truly arrived.

The event is open to all. If you’re a Boston Comics Roundtable member, you’re especially welcome, as we had a hand in helping to produce Minimum Paige. The normal BCR meeting will still be held in its normal time and place for those interested, but if you’re so inclined, you can come to the party instead.

Thursday, September 22nd, 7 pm, Harvard Book Store

Harvard Book Store and the Boston Comics Round Table are excited to celebrate the release of Harvard Book Store’s first comics anthology, Minimum Paige, printed on Paige M. Gutenborg, our in-house book machine. The evening will include improvisational cartoons by local artists, a raffle to benefit a neighborhood comics-related charity, a chance to meet some of our contributors, as well as wine and light refreshments.

Minimum Paige showcases the talent of local artists including Ignatz Award-winner Liz Prince (“Will You Still Love Me If I Wet The Bed?”), DC Comics artist Joe Quinones (“Wednesday Comics”), Boston Comics Roundtable editors Dave Kender and Dan Mazur, and many more.Minimum Paige will also feature profiles of the Cambridge area’s most talented graphic novel creators.

The anthology also features work by winners of Harvard Book Store’s first-ever comics contest, which ran for six weeks during the summer.
