PRESS RELEASE:

“CAVALCADE OF BOYS” RETURNS!

Popular gay romance comic continues as a full-page weekly newspaper series

Series creator Tim Fish proudly announces the return of CAVALCADE OF BOYS on July 5, 2007, as a printed weekly series in Boston’s LGBT newspaper, BAY WINDOWS. The new series will be a continuation of the original series featuring familiar characters in a stand-alone story.

Continuing on the success of the comic book series and trade paperbacks published by Poison Press, BAY WINDOWS and Fish have agreed to run all new material. “I’m thrilled,” says Fish. “It’s a very rare opportunity for a comic creator to be given an ongoing full-page series in a newspaper.”

The live area of the paper’s pages is 10”x14” which presents a unique canvas for a comic series. The original series was presented in the more traditional format of comic books. “I’m still getting used to the layout and orientation of the page, but I’m happy with the story line I’m developing,” commented Fish.

The new series will focus on realistic characters and situations, just as the comic books did. However, the BAY WINDOWS series’ cast will be smaller and the storyline more focused.
