What is a young person in love?
The original Young People in Love comic project was a 200-page anthology of 20 comics from queer comic creators. The film unexpectedly won a 2023 GLAAD Media Award and received a positive response after its premiere, setting the stage for a sequel this year.
The original story features free-spirited pirates, wayward ghosts, heroic knights and rampaging monsters (as well as down-to-earth ordinary people!). Collected together in an extremely unique anthology, these stories celebrate love between men that will surprise and delight you, created by an amazing group of comics creators who know exactly what it feels like.
This new campaign will launch on October 1 via Kickstarter. However, if you want to make sure you’re up to date with the latest news on this anthology, be sure to click here to check out their pre-release event!
