Comic Review: Sworn (C. J. Evans and Silvano)

Hello over there, pornies! I come today to speak a little about Sworn, by C. J. Evans and Silvano, published by Class Comics, a comic I’m in a love-hate relationship with since the first time I read it.
Calais (Kevin) and Slammer (Patrick) are supposed to be sworn (had to say it) enemies, they are part of the good and bad guys of the story respectively, but after their first encounter and an unexpected result, these guys connect in a way they cannot understand and that shakes Kevin’s world.
This is such a sweet story I cannot help but read it now and then. I like the Romeo-and-Juliet concept, how things evolve so naturally and end so hot. Some could argue that the creators confuse romance with sexual attraction, but for me this is one of those cases when both things bled together perfectly.
There is a bit of coming-of-age and self-discovery included that make it all sweeter and adorable if you forget about the sex for a minute (I know it’s hard, but try). I don’t think there is a comic or a manga that uses these ideas in so naturally, as it is not uncomfortable when we see the characters discovering themselves.

Despite the designs for Kevin and Patrick are a bit cliché, the contrast it creates when they start to get along is impressive. Certain scenes don’t look this good, and the creators knew it would be like that, hence the length of this scene. Thank you, guys, thank you. I’m not a fan of hairy guys, but I’ll gladly become Patrick if the Gods give me a Kevin.
The bad news are that there is only one issue published so far. WTF, Class Comics?! If I knew how to draw or had an artist interested, I would start working on a FanMade sequel (wink, wink, if there’s any aspiring artist there, here’s an aspiring writer, wink, wink). I don’t understand what happened with this, but if anyone knows something, let me know!

Kinky regards, K!
