Spellbound #1
The Boston Comics Roundtable
by Olivia Li, Heide Solbrig, Ben Doane, Jamie Koh 40 pages ~ $ 8 | Black and White | 7 x 8.5 inches
The latest installment in the Boston Comics Roundtable's ongoing anthology series, delves into city life through the lens of urban fantasy. This collection contains over a dozen stories by Boston-area independent comics creators who challenge the way we view the world by adding a dash of the supernatural into life in the big city. Visually diverse, these tales reveal the magic in both the extraordinary and the mundane of life in Beantown. The stories span from imaginative solutions for the challenges of the immigrant experience, to the dark rites of Patriots fans, to larger-than-life musings of inanimate objects along a Boston skyline. This anthology takes our city and pulls it through the looking glass, and along the way creates a sometimes serious, sometimes silly wonderland of local comics.

The Greatest of All Time Comics Anthology
Ninth Art Press
by
Dan Mazur, Jesse Lonergan
123 pages ~ $12 | Color & BW | 6x9 inches
26 independent comics creators put their minds to this challenge, and produced an assortment of stories which run the gamut from political satire to autobiography, fantasy, historical non-fiction and other genres. With subjects like the greatest rock band of all time, the greatest conspiracy of all time and the greatest spy of all time, to the greatest potato of all time, the greatest bruise of all time, and the greatest sweater of all time, the stories range from the (supposedly) factual, to the entirely fictional, to the extravagantly silly. “The idea of the theme was, on the one hand, to play with the idea of hype and success which are such big parts of our culture, or to look at the real meaning of greatness, depending on how each individual creator wanted to interpret it,” says co-editor Dan Mazur. “We just put this rich idea in front of a bunch of writers and artists and let them run with it. We ended up with a lot of unexpected things, and a really fun collection of comics. Maybe the greatest ever. No, definitely the greatest ever.” The stories in The Greatest of All Time Comics Anthology range from tantalizingly economical two pagers, to a ten-page epic about the Greatest Neck Pillow of All Time; there are also two stories in full, vibrant color. Bound in durable card-stock covers, with numerologically-significant total page count of 123, the collection sells for the astonishingly reasonable price of $12.00. There is some mature content**, making the book appropriate for ages 14 and up. Or younger, if the parents are really cool. The Greatest of All Time Comics Anthology has also been chosen by the editors of the Greatest of All Time Comics Anthology as a “top pick” holiday gift for anyone interested in off-beat independent comics anthologies.
