New York Minute
by
I just can’t find it in me to give it less that 5 stars, even though the story is quite short, and there is not a lot actually happening. But the illustrations are as always so beautiful and manage to convey so many feelings, that there is no other way out than the Big Five.
NYM takes place 6 years before the events in chapters 1-8 of ITW, and tells of Katsu and David’s first amorous rendez-vous. Unfortunately for the reader, the more explicit version happens off-page….
Despite this sacrilege, NYM still contains other, almost equally satisfying stuff. It is full of warmth and a sense of humor that I loved reading after the earlier, rather „demanding“ chapters of In these Words;-).
This beautiful specimen of a man below is apparently part of the inspiration for David Krause, and again, a picture speaks louder than 1000 words…I can stare at this guy forever.
The story "Prey" (17 pp text with 2 illustration, written by Suzume) should definitely be read before reading Father figure, since it contains some pretty major spoilers.
"Prey" takes place one year before Katsu and David hook up, and is told from David’s POV. Katsu has just started at the police department, and is getting hazed by his colleagues, in particular section chief Lane. Hazing is a mild way to describe it, bullying and sexual harassment is closer to the truth as David discovers.
(view spoiler)
Last but not least; in this doujinshi there is also a very funny 3-frame strip, where it is revealed… (view spoiler)
