Creators fight Red Sox "curse": The Lowell (Mass.) Sun reports that lifelong Red Sox fan Larry Doherty, owner of Larry's Comics in Lowell, brought together a handful of comic-book creators to help "reverse the curse" of the hometown team:

"Three comic-book creators have taken the characters published in their independent comics and are outfitting them with Red Sox attire in specific issues. On hand to sign limited-edition copies of their work on Saturday were Mario Gully, creator of The Ant for Arcana Studios, Kay Cornell of Lowell, creator of Samurai Raccoon for Diversity Comics, and Rich Woodall and Matt Talbot, creators of Johnny Raygun by Jetpack Press of New Hampshire."
