SPECIAL LAUNCH PRICE $20

Tango8: Love and Food, the eighth issue of bumper Australian romance comics anthology Tango, will be launched in style by Melbourne food legend Dur-e Dara at the brand new bar Mr Wilkinson, 295 Lygon St, East Brunswiuck, on Wednesday December 17 at 7pm. Entry is free.

At 242 pages, this rollercoaster ride through the wealth of comic book talent in Australasia includes new work from talented graphic novelists Nicki Greenberg (The Great Gatsby, Allen & Unwin), Bruce Mutard (The Sacrifice, also Allen & Unwin) and Mandy Ord (Rooftops, published by Finlay Lloyd) plus two brilliant cartoonists from The Age, Andrew Weldon and Oslo Davis. These vary from 1 to 18 pages in length, exploring the theme of  ‘love and food’ in hilarious, romantic, creepy, nostalgic and heartfelt ways. A great gift for foodies, comic lovers and those hard-to-buy-for teens, twenties and thirty-somethings – as well as the baby boomers who learned to read from Marvel and Zap!

The trade paperback sized collection is available at book shops, comic book sellers and at http://www.cardigancomics.com/
