Another Fun TP: Kyle's Bed & Breakfast: Without Reservations

For a great read, check out the fourth trade paperback in the LGBT comic series "Kyle's Bed and Breakfast: Without Reservations." Greg Fox is an incredible writer and artist who brings to life the many characters of Kyle's Bed and Breakfast. This paperback came out in October 2015.

The setting is a Bed and Breakfast in New York, owned by a 30 something gay man named Kyle, who runs this  gay bed and breakfast. He has long-term renters and people who come and go. There are so many great characters and situations that many gay men can identify with and relate to and you'll really get involved in their lives. I love reading Kyle's B and B and seeing what the characters can get into next. 

In this collection you'll read about Kyle's assistant coaching of an olympic skater who insisted making a statement, Drew and Lance learning to trust each other, Richard's brother, and a great new 80 year old character, Rudy. Once you start reading the series, you'll want to get all of the paperbacks!!!

I can't wait for the NEXT collection to come out. 

This series takes comic strips through 2014. For the most recent comic strips, you can find them on-line at:

ABOUT THIS BOOK: It's easy to see why thousands of readers have been swept up into the captivating saga of the B&B boys in this, the fourth volume in the series. Set in the picturesque New England-style harbor town of Northport, (a real town, located on the rocky north shore of Long Island), the men of Kyle's B&B have returned for more drama, romance, laughter, intrigue, suspense, and, (sometimes), sheer wackiness. Closeted baseball player Brad... cool, calculating businessman Lance... party boy gossip Richard... hardworking college student Eduardo... and B&B owner Kyle, the calm at the center of the emotional maelstrom. Although the series runs as a biweekly comic strip, (published online and syndicated to LGBT print publications across North America), this collection reads more like a graphic novel, with interwoven, ongoing storylines sure to be of spellbinding interest to both men & women, gay & straight readers alike. Containing several years' worth of episodes, (in which new characters such as Olympic figure skater Michael, octogenarian Rudy, and southern musclebear sensation Drew are introduced), this volume also includes a 7-page all-new story sure to enthrall readers. Happily, it isn't necessary to have read prior volumes in the series... new readers can jump right into the story here with ease, in what is possibly the best volume in the series so far. Lushly illustrated in full-color, this is one B&B you'll want to return to again and again!

Great graphic novel: Kyle's B&B: Second Bowl of Serial

I recently enjoyed reading the second graphic novel of Kyle's Bed &

Breakfast: A Second Bowl of Serial (Paperback)
   This is the second collection of some of the earlier strips in a great bi-weekly comic strip still running in many  gay newspapers around the U.S. and  you can read it on-line here every other week: http://kylesbnb.blogspot.com/
  All I can say is that Greg Fox has done it again. His cast of characters in a gay bed and breakfast all have their own personalities and issues. They're all likeable characters that come together that make you want to keep reading about them and getting to know them. I started reading this slowly because I didn't want it to end and already ordered the next collection. The dialog is great and the artwork is fantastic. Greg had also illustrated DC and Marvel comics, and he is an incredible talent. This is a must-read.

Video Meet Greg Fox, Creator of "Kyle's Bed & Breakfast" (11 mins)

As someone who has collected comics and graphic novels for the last 30 years, I recently found a great
comic strip and graphic novels with a gay-themed group of characters who own and manage a bed and breakfast. It's all PG-rated and is filled with a variety of characters (some come and go, because it takes place in a bed and breakfast). I urge you to give "Kyle's Bed & Breakfast" a read. - Rob
