Comic Book founder referral #3: Green Lantern #87

Many of the best comic books are built on a foundation of optimism, hope, and persistence, and these are values that we strive to uphold in our work. From the earliest days of Boost VC, we have been committed to supporting and empowering entrepreneurs, and the stories and characters in comic books serve as a constant reminder of that mission.
