Another webcomic makes the jump to print:

Building on the success as a daily Web comic at Popimage.com, YOUNG BOTTOMS IN LOVE, Poison Press is proud to announce the print release of this popular work, due in stores May 2007.

The print release of YOUNG BOTTOMS IN LOVE offers a select anthology of the online series and several print exclusives as well.

Created in August 2002, by the very versatile cartoonist and editor, Tim Fish, the online daily comic, YOUNG BOTTOMS IN LOVE, has examined gay romance from nearly every angle. Dozens of creators–gay and straight, amateur and professional–have contributed their many talents to the strip over time, expressing themselves in all manner of styles from the familiar to the abstract, from the humorous to the grave.

The print compilation, lauded by fans such as Alison Bechdel (FUN HOME) and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Marvel Comics’ SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN) includes work from:

Paige Braddock (Eisner nominee, JANE’S WORLD)
Howard Cruse (Eisner winner, STUCK RUBBER BABY)
Adam DeKraker (DC Comics’ SUPERGIRL)
Abby Denson (TOUGH LOVE, XY Magazine)
Michael DiMotta (INSTINCT Magazine)
Tim Fish (CAVALCADE OF BOYS)

Jack Lawrence (Image Comics’ LIONS, TIGERS AND BEARS)
Dave Roman (TEEN BOAT, NICKELODEON Magazine)
Steven Sadowski (DC Comics’ JSA)

Proceeds from this book project will be generously donated to worthy gay advocacy groups, such as Human Rights Campaign, Trevor Project, and Prism Comics.
