Nah, that's pretty much how you do it. A WINNER IS YOU.

I wasn't going to make the next one, then I watched nobody make a new one for 40 minutes and started work on one, but I can stop work on that now.

Bethryn

Good, now I can finally post this:

Tonkka

I assume its opposite to the Marquess of Queensbury rules.

Mainly the "no wrestling or hugging allowed".

SabreMau

Also, the last panel in the OP is clearly advertising for the royal wedding.

Ah, yes. Just like some people tend to prefer stuff with straight people in them, I like stuff with queer people in them.

More evidence to the fact that I am always correct.

Der Waffle Mous

Basically what I'm saying is that the Kochi Rule means that there will be dudes doing things similar to wrestling and/or hugging.

In direct defiance of that asshole who put Oscar Wilde in jail.

Reposting it cause its a fantastic and very intelligent and interesting interview:

http://www.comicbookbin.com/Interview_TJ_Amal_Creator001.html

CBB: TJ and Amal is a buddy comic strip. We’ve seen a few of those, even in the super hero genre. But I’ve never seen one like yours. What inspired you to create this feature?

E.K. Weaver: There wasn’t a single, specific inspiration. I’ve always adored films and TV shows where the character relationships and character development are the defining factors. I love comics and animation that use silence and body language to convey as much information as dialogue. On top of that, I’m a big fan of the “strangers thrust together by chance gradually form close bonds” setup (e.g. Firefly, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo)… so I guess I’m just making the kind of story I’d want to read.


CBB: The story feels like it was written by someone with very close experience to the types of characters TJ and Amal are. But obviously, you’re a married woman and not a gay guy living in San Francisco. Are the characters based on real people or you did a lot of research to give them that authentic feel?

E.K. Weaver: A little of both. There are elements in their personalities that are derived from people I know, but I also did a lot of research.

Agh, “research” makes it sound so cold and clinical. Really, it consisted of listening to and reading a lot of personal stories – books, blogs, memoirs, essays, poetry, any personal experience – as well as constructing the characters’ histories by figuring out what their childhoods and family lives might have been like. What resources were available in this school district, wealthy neighbourhoods, poor neighbourhoods, religious upbringing, family dynamics, et cetera. How all these factors may have shaped them.

I didn’t set out with the specific goal of wanting to write “a realistic gay guy”. There’s no universal experience for gay dudes any more than for any other group. TJ and Amal are individuals with their own identities and experiences. Being gay (or in TJ’s case, just generally not-straight) is a facet of that, and it is part of what shapes their lives, but it’s not a limit… it’s not the beginning and end of who they are.

CBB: When reading TJ and Amal, I really found myself liking the story and the very realistic feel. One thing that did bug me in a way was the yaoi label applied to it. It felt like it wasn’t written for me even though I enjoyed it a lot. Like I was not the targeted demographic group supposed to read it. How do you feel about such labels and how they influence what people will say about comics or even how they recommend them?

E.K. Weaver: Genre labels can be both convenient and frustrating. If you’re primarily interested in sci-fi, for example, it’s handy to have that label to gravitate towards. But for works that span genres, or don’t adhere to genre conventions, labels can be reductive and even detrimental. TJ and Amal isn’t aimed at any particular genre or demographic. I hope it’ll attract readers who enjoy fun dialogue and interesting characters, but beyond that… nope, that’s all I care about. I honestly don’t have a solid label for it, myself.

I used to get pretty down when someone would label TJ and Amal “yaoi”, since that label carries a connotation of shallowness and meaninglessness, but… I don’t know, fretting about it, trying to fight it seems like a waste of energy. People will call it what they want, and if the story is strong enough, it’ll break past those labels.

Surprised nobody noticed this: In the most recent gucomic that was posted last thread one of the pictures on the fridge is one of the characters drinking with Gabe.

SabreMau

Scooter

So hungry he could eat, like, twenty or thirty horses

SwissLion

I imagine having a bag of mini-horses is like having Malteasers or Tim-Tams or Ritz or whatever your eat-the-whole bag food of choice is.

You can never eat just one.

And of the Archiemics.

Archemix, on the other hand, is (was?) a small Cambridge, MA biopharmaceutical firm that has slides online from years past speaking of Strong Financial History but whose current website merely gives the address of a liquidating trust.

I'm usually not a stickler for these things, as "because superheroes" is usually enough. But the transition from frame 1 to frame 2 of that has some serious what the hell is going on here.
