"Ang Jowa Kong Crosswise follows the life and times of Tomas and Leo, who -- for all the world -- look like any other yuppie same-sex couple in their twenties. They, too, fight about all those domestic things long-term couples bicker about. But then again, Tomas and Leo are no ordinary couple, and it's not because they're gay. Tomas is a bloodthirsty, self-segmenting, folkoric creature of the night, while Leo is ... well, just Leo."
The Plot:
Late for work? Grab is still 10 minutes away? It looks like a job for Leo's crosswise partner.
The Good:
The story and art are really loveable to look at. The creator did a great job in this online comic.
The Bad:
The only bad thing is this is only 4 panels long.
The Verdict:
Tsambolero gives us a sweet and hilarious take on an interesting same-sex couple that involves different creatures, wherein their main focus is love. This episode ends with the lower half of Tomas still polishing the floor with a coconut husk.
The artist made an adorable couple in the image of Tomas and Leo where readers will keep on coming back for that 'kilig' feeling.
