About the series
A sprawling, character-driven saga of young adulthood in New York City, Box Office Poison launched from Top Shelf in 2002 with a single, hefty graphic novel. Written and drawn by Alex Robinson, this acclaimed work follows a cast of twentysomethings navigating friendship, ambition, and romantic misadventures in the late 1990s. Its warm, naturalistic dialogue and intricate, slice-of-life storytelling helped define the indie-comics boom of the era, making it a landmark of the genre.
