  • Inbound #5: Available Now!

    The Boston Comics Roundtable is pleased to present a sumptuous new collection of stories in the our latest anthology, Inbound 5. It’s our latest – and largest – collection of comics ever. Our intrepid crew of comics artists tackles the topic of food, from the prosaic to the historical to the mythological. This 176-page trade paperback is a feast for the eyes. (View samples here.)


    Have you ever heard of the fruit so pungent that it’s banned in some countries? What about the legend of the boy who wouldn’t talk, and the butcher’s unusual cure? Tales of great love and tragic loss. Stories of the revelations and repugnance that only food can conjure. Inbound 5 is a great gift for comics lovers and kitchen enthusiasts everywhere. It’s available here at our online store and in many comic book and locally-owned book stores in the Boston area.
