Adamo anthology is a project designed to showcase the newest and brightest boys love artists and writers that create in the English language. The goal of adamo anthology is to create high-quality English-language boys love comics that are easily accessible via internet and conventions, and we hope that adamo will draw attention to the gay comic artists and writers that are extremely talented in their areas. The anthology will, ideally, have multiple English volumes showcasing a variety of art and writing styles from incredibly talented arists all over the globe. So far, volume 1 features contributors from Australia, Canada, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, and the United States.
Planned release date for adamo anthology volume 1 is October 29th at Yaoi-con, San Francisco, California.
