SIDE BY SIDE: The Journal of a Small Town Boy

Mioki

Side By Side is the story of Evan and Rick. Fast and close friends since their kindergarten days, in a small town their friendship evolves into the love of their lives. They move to the big city where they meet Billie and Charlie and these four friends are soon inseparable. Mioki presents a moving portrait of gay life with all its highs and lows. Drawn in a sure style and masterfully incisive, Mioki’s comic is a joy to read, is moving and the sex also doesn’t get short shrift. A charming comic for the young and the young-at-heart.

Mioki lives in New Jersey and was born in 1949, the son of Czech and German immigrants. Although he’s been drawing comics since he was a child, he has never had any professional training as an artist, which certainly isn’t evident from his work! Rick and Evan first appeared in the 2006 collect, Stripped: The Illustrated Male Anthology. This is their story.
