Jiraiya is releasing another comic anthology. But it is a kind of "updated" version of the comic book which was released years ago (see below). The newer version contains 3 more comics which were released after the 1st version's release. And it also contains various new stuffs, says Jiraiya.

I found a print inspired by Tom of Finland. I might make a rubber stamp out of this image.

G-men #172 Another comic by Jiraiya, which was published after his latest comic book. It is called Kinta no Kintama(金太のキンタマ), which means Kinta's balls in Japanese. Followings are the images that I've found regarding this comic.

Byunchun aka Angel Crazy is a Korean gay cartoonist. He is well known for his comic book, Byun -tae- chun -sa(perverted angel). Currently, he posts his comics through his personal site; http://angelcrazy.egloos.com or famous Korean gay portal site, Ivancity .

Last week, this book arrived. I purchased it early this month. I surfed the net before I ordered it, but the only place where I can read this book is the library of one university in Suwon(a city located at south of Seoul). And only one local on-line bookstore sells the book only in Chinese (which I can't read). It's hard to find the image of this book. Not like the cover image up above, if you hold the book, you can see the boy (on the cover) stare back at you (very straightforward). Glad to have the book in English.

The movie is based on true story. The mother of Bobby didn't embrace the fact that her son is gay. Bobby suffered from the alienation from his family, especially from his mother. After Bobby took his own life, the mother tries to make it all right, visits church where people have different opinion on what the Bible tells and finally becomes a figure of PFLAG . I almost cried watching this movie. This blog is mostly dedicated to non-english source or at least materials published in Korea. But sometimes, I'll be posting things like this.

Jiraiya has published his newest comic, Beware of Fire(火のー用ー心), though G-Men #196. Here's the rough sketch of two main characters of the comic.   Here are some shots from the comic.   The man on the left is saying, "Don't you feel somewhat dangerous/risky, do you?" I can't read the line.   The man on the right is saying that "Call the insurance company". And the other man is responding "But what about today?(literally, today is a big problem)" *Because of the fire at the younger man's apartment, the elder man, who is the boss, let the younger man stay at his own home. *What's going to happen that night? Here's the cover of the magazine which includes the comic. Should I buy magazines or should I wait for another compilation comic book by Jiraiya???
