I bought this after reading it in the magazine, and it was even better the second time around.

"Gay for you" is a common trope in this genre, but let's face it, it often requires quite an amount of suspension of disbelief. So I'm always happy when I encounter a story that makes it believable.

The delinear storytelling makes it seem like a disjointed memory - the reader has to work a little to see the whole picture, and I liked that a lot. There's also a lot of power in the pictures and panel structure.

It all adds up to a believable story about two very different (previously) straight men who meet and hit it off, spend more and more time together and then realize what's really going on. Not a rare story at all, but extraordinarily well told.
