The Virgin Project 2 was unleashed on the world at the end of April, accompanied by major buzz. First the private launch party, attended by none other than The Stranger’s Paul Constant:
“The second Virgin Project book is more expertly crafted than the first. Each account of sexual activity—with a German prostitute, with a Klingon at a Star Trek convention, being so high on mushrooms that you believe you’re having gay sex with Bob Marley—is lovingly rendered, and the book is a fun, sexy read all the way through.” Read more …
Then a rave review by Associated Content’s Donna Barr:
“These stories could have been told without kindness and care. They could have been just an excuse to sell sex. In the hands of Boze and Kato, they have become the call to face our sexuality as it truly is, without prejudice or stereotypes. This is a high-wire act, and without the sweet, humble approach of this talented duo, it would have crashed into the sawdust far below. Don’t try this at home.” Read more …
That Saturday, April 30, Kevin and Stasia lovingly presented their brainchild at the Erotic Arts Festival. Then, on Sunday, the pièce de resistance: the book’s creators were named Cartoonists of the Year by Cartoonists Northwest, which also awarded The Virgin Project 2 the Golden Toonie Award in the Comic Books/Graphic Novels Category.
