NEW ANTHOLOGY FROM BOSTON COMICS ROUNDTABLE: Spellbound Comics #1 Launch Party
SOMERVILLE, Mass. – Imagine the city of Boston if it were infused with magic, both the mundane and extraordinary sprinkled with a dash of the supernatural. The latest release from the Boston Comics Roundtable (BCR) explores just that in Spellbound #1. Please join us on Saturday July 18 at 6:00 PM at the Boston Comics Workspace (located at 561 Windsor Street, Studio 306, in Somerville, Mass.) to celebrate our newest anthology.
This collection of over a dozen stories takes our city and pulls it through the looking glass, utilizing a host of varying narratives to create a sometimes serious, sometimes silly examination of what it means to be a Bostonian. Including the work of Dan Mazur, author of Comics: A Global History, Colonial Comics editor and contributor J.L. Bell, and Emmy Award winning graphic designer Anthony Lathrop, to name but a few, the anthology promises a stunning and visually diverse array of unique stories. The book will be for sale before its official debut at Boston Comic Con on July 31. Come by the Workspace to snag an advance copy, enjoy some light refreshments, and talk shop with the BCR.
Spellbound is also available for preorder online at http://bostoncomics.storenvy.com/products/13019412-spellbound-1. Additionally, please see our website for more information about the Boston Comics Roundtable and our upcoming events (www.bostoncomicsroundtable.com).
