Boy Meets Boy by K.Sandra, reviewed by Shaenon Garrity

If the popularity of Boy Meets Boy teaches us anything, it's that webcomics need more hot, shirtless young men making out with each other.

"Kip!"
Ah. Excuse me. Yes?
"What do you think?"
Of what?
"Of these rough layouts."
Well, I'm not exactly sure that's Molly, isn't it?
"That's Griffen."
Oh.
"It's the bit with the guitar. On the corner. Remember? So. What do you think?"
It looks good.
"You're just saying that."
No, really. I like the, uh. The thing, there. I can't wait to see it finished. Now, I need to get back to
Art and Narrative: The Monitor Has Two Faces

Carl Jung called it the Shadow, though it's most commonly referred to as the Alter-Ego these days – a way of understanding how the different, and occasionally disparate parts of our personality relate to one another.
