love it, oh and you.
PJ london

Dear PJ,

Thank you for the very high praise! We've never been compared to geniuses before! It's so awesome to get emails like yours. We hope you are enjoying the comic so far.

Much love, Chayne & Russ

Dear Paulo,

Thank you for your kind and humerous praise of Boy Meets Hero! We're glad you think that Justin is cute, that means we are doing our jobs right! As far as Zap-Man having a gay experience, don't hold your breath! With his obnoxious personality, he's definately not anyone we'd like playing for our team... Even if he is well endowed, (at least according to Derek!)

Take care and let us know if you ever catch Batman in Aquaman's hunky arms!

Much love,
Chayne & Russell

Hi Trevor,

Thanks for letting us know that we have made you an addict of our comic! It's very cool to hear from teenage readers who appreciate the material we are creating. Take care and we hope to hear from you again sometime!

Best wishes,Chayne

Thank you! It really means a lot coming from you! Russ and I are putting our all into this project to make it the best we can. It's nice to get positive responses to our work. So far we haven't received any negative mail regarding Boy Meets Hero. Thank you for sticking with it and supporting us! Love you!

-Chayne

Dear Korey,

It is always very cool to get compliments from other web comic creators. It takes a lot of effort to put these things together so I really appreciate hearing from you that you like our work! I also wanted to let you know that I got a kick out of your own super heroines and hope that is going well for you.

Anyway, take care and best of luck to you in everything that you do!
Sincerely, Chayne

Tim,

Currently we are busily trying to get our fourth and final issue of BMH put together. It will take a few more months to get it all wrapped up. After that we plan to get the whole thing printed so we can sell it to the world!

Talk to ya soon and take care.
-Chayne

Andrew,

Thanks so much for mentioning me and Boy Meets Hero last friday on queerty.com.  I'm all about shameless promotion :)

BTW, I love your blog (i'm obsessed, I probably check it ten times a day :)  Hope you liked our comic, we plan on keeping it online for a few more months and then we want to get it published in a graphic novel format.  We're just over halfway done with the story so we're hoping by next summer we'll have something in print.  
Anyway, thanks again!

Hey Chayne,
I happened to come across your comics when i was searching on Google. I had no idea that comics like these existed and its really nice to know there is comics like these because not only do they have really good storylines there simple to read and understand. It may sound a little strange when i say that comics are sometimes hard to read but i have come across comics before that have complicated storylines and the characters are hard to understand and relate with. Your characters however are the complete opposite there easy to relate with because some of the characters seem to lead normal lifestyles yet they are leading a superhero life which is filled with alot of action which makes the comics interesting to read. Its also nice to see some gay characters in your comics because this isn't a very common thing in comics the superheros are always associated with being very manly. I think it's good that you combine masculinity with a gay character because it shows that a man can have masculinity and be gay which is often believed that this isn't true. I think its a good idea if you have straight characters aswell because its promotes that gay and straight people can be friends and this is something which is often not seen in television, films, books let alone comics. I think you can learn something from these comics about equality for gay people especially any straight readers. I think you have really thought out the characters well and they all have a good story behind them which is good. It would be really nice if you published some comic books sometime because i think they would be a really popular choice especially among regular readers. Your artwork is also very impressive which just adds to all the good aspects of the comics.
 
I think this comic will go far once you publish some comicbooks. It has alot of potential because your comics feature gay characters and have very good storylines. The storyline is the main part of the comics that does it for me. There so interesting to read!! So keep up the good work:) I'm really glad i came across this accidentally.
 
Sean x

Dear Sean x,

Wow! Thank you so much for your wonderful letter! We can't tell you
enough how much we appreciate your kind words! Your comments about Boy
Meets Hero reflect exactly what we are trying to accomplish!
It is so cool to receive e-mails such as yours. It helps more than you
know! We have worked incredibly hard to make sure that Boy Meets Hero
is a good as we can make it. We wanted to illustrate that there are a
variety of gay people in the world and that we all have value! Some of
us my be masculine, some are effeminate, while others are a nice
balance of the two. We want to embrace all the wonderful diversity
that makes people special, gay or straight!

The inspiration for Boy Meets Hero came from that fact that there
aren't very many gay themed comics that deal with the issues that we
do. We wish that there were more main stream gay super heroes, and so
by creating Blue Comet, we hope that he fills that void.
We are getting closer to the day that we can actually publish the
entire story of Boy Meets Hero in a graphic novel format. We still
have several pages to create until that day, but we continue to make
that our goal.

Thank you again. We're so glad that you came across Boy Meets Hero and
that it inspired you to write us! It's people like you that make this
project worthwhile! Take care and keep in touch!

Hey~
Just thought I would drop an e-mail and tell you guys that I think your comic is quite impressive.  I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up being syndicated in paper one of these days.  I do hope that you have one or two straight guy characters in there that are nice.  Maybe someone for SunStar, a boyfriend, etc.  I just hope we don't end up seeing the comic making fun of straight guys the way main stream comics have done to gay characters in the past.  (Boy meets Hero should be better than that.)  It is nice to see gays portrayed in a positive light, although I do wonder how acurrate it is to real life at some points.  (Perhaps I am simply jaded being gay myself, lol.)  Anyway, I should be getting back to creating my designs for the temp job I have.  Being a graphic artist may not being paying all the bills right now, but at least it's something I want to do and I'm not doing something I loath.  I am sure you two know all about that.  Best of luck in your future endovours and your comic.

Mr. Brian B.,
Macomb, IL.

Dear Brian,

Thank you so much for your awesome e-mail! We really appreciate what a fellow graphic artist has to say about Boy Meets Hero.

You brought up a very good point about including straight characters that are not jerks. (i.e. Zap-Man) and making fun of straight people; we only plan to do that to our characters that deserve it, gay or straight! We do happen to have one straight character who has been talked about in the comic, but has yet to show up in the story. Keep a look out for an up-coming scene that features this very important character.

As far as Sunstar finding a real boyfriend of her own, that is definately something we want to happen for her as the story progresses. We just don't know when yet. So don't worry, we have the best intentions for our characters in mind!

And finally, thank you for mentioning that Boy Meets Hero might end up syndicated in a paper someday. That would be awesome if it happened and we can only hope!

So, take care and keep in touch. Thanks again for taking the time to write!

Hello Chayne,
By surfing (on one of the gay blog ) I found your website and read the whole series
I am working at a comic book wholesaler distributing Diamond imported stuff (comics, toys,..) but also French bandes dessinees

I read a lot of comics (from independent and Vertigo to mainstream marvel and dc) like retro videogames and horror and sci fi series

Boy Meets Hero is fun, some the of the stories are a bit too nasic for my taste but the gay jokes were fun (when they talked with their old neighbour on the beach)

I will keep reading it

Good work
Laurent 38 from Belgium

Hey Laurent,

Thanks for your e-mail! "Cute and fun" is just we strive for when working on Boy Meets Hero! We're glad you are enjoying the story so far. It's so cool to hear from someone in Belgium! Take care!

July 24, 2006

will your comic illustrations ever be more than just pg 13?

Transmetals 2
AKA: The Phoenix

Thanks for your question Transmetals 2, it is actually a very good one. As we have continued working on Boy Meets Hero we have added small bits of nudity when we can. We went from simply showing Derek & Justin nude in profile, to showing Derek from behind in his shower, and finally to showing Derek full frontal in a non-sexual scene in the WHO decontamination shower.

We feel that what we have shown so far has been fairly tame, and we are planning a scene that would definately put our comic into a more "adult" category. However, we do not plan to ever have any explicit imagery depicting hard-core gay sex. We feel that sexuality is something beautiful and let our readers determine what happens for themselves.

So thank you for bringing up a valid question regarding how much we are going to show. We hope you are enjoying the comic and thank you for writing in!

Hey there. I came across Boy Meets Hero throuh GCL and was totally blown away. I'm a sucker for gay superhero stories but your stand out becasue of the great artwork and sophistocated storytelling.

I went to your links page and saw you only had a few banners. If you want, I'd like to exchange banners with ya. I do a comic called Anti-Heroes at www.anti-heroes.net

Keep up the great work, man!
 
- JC

Dear JC,

Thank you for your great email and for taking the time to let us know you dig our work. Also, Thanks for the awesome compliments regarding the art & story!

I checked out your site and got a real kick out of it! Your art & coloring is really cool & dynamic! Plus, Tai is totaly hot!!! (I especially enjoyed the Dragonball Z references as I used to watch that show.) We would definately love to exchange links!

Well, take care & keep up the great work!

-Chayne

Dear Craig,

Thanks for writing to us! So far, Boy Meets Hero is only available online. What we have posted is the entire story thus far. We continue to work on it everyday and try to post a new page each week if we can. We've completed about two issues worth of material and our initial story arc will fill about two more. After it's finished, we do plan on printing it all as a complete graphic novel. Thank you so very much for your support!

-Chayne & Russ

Dear Vince,

Dear Jannho,

Thank you so very much for taking the time to write to us. We really appreciate hearing that you like our comic! It is very exciting for us to hear from someone from Singapore! We hope you enjoy the rest of Boy Meets Hero. Best wishes!

-Chayne & Russ

Finally! A gay superhero! This comic has a lot of potential and I cant wait to see where the story takes us.
 
Thanks.

- John

John

Thanks for letting us know you like our comic! As for where the story is going, we've got some great stuff planned!

It's awesome to get mail letting us know that people enjoy what we are doing! It makes all the difference! Thanks!

-Chayne & Russ

Hi!
Your creation was previewed in the Prism Comics Portfolio which I got from Zan for working on another project..  well, long story short, it's a GREAT adventure and I can't wait to see what happens next  :)

I especially like seeing that your universe is populated by more than just two superheroes (even if Zap-Man is a bit of  a prick, but who said all superheroes had to be polite optimists? :)) - populated enough to have  a huge world headquarters!  Excellent!  I can see already how complex your world is going to be, but not so complex that we lose focus on Justin and Derek (and Jillian, too).

- Sean

Hey Sean,

Thanks for the great email! We're really glad that you've enjoyed the comic so far.

It's great to get someone's perspective on what we are setting up in our comic. Glad you like it!

It really means a lot when we get fan mail! It's our only form of feedback and so far it's all been positive.

Anyway, thanks again for writing and for liking our stuff!

Russ & Chayne

May I just say that your comic is the hottest f***ing thing I have everseen ;)  Butt why don't you show more PENIS you should have one issue that is just Derek and Justin f***ing like crazy. (or masturbating, give them both double handers, and show every thing naked).

- Big Penis Man

Dear Mr. Man,

Thanks for writing to let us know you like our comic!

As far as showing any kind of graphic sexuality, we have opted to leave any of that up to the reader's imagination. (And judging from your e-mail, you've got quite a "handle" on yours!) So we don't plan on depicting anything quite so... "arousing" as what you are suggesting!

Anyway, as consolation we do have a shower scene that features some hot male frontal nudity. Hope you enjoy!

Chayne & Russ

Hella,
I absolutely loved your comic, as an open minded bisexual person I find ease to read, but I suppose that most heterosexual close minded people(W.Bush(lol)) would not be able to read the comic and would criticise it as bad influence for children or something like that.

I would love to read more.

And then again, congrats for such a great idea, totally out of the box. lol. ;D Totally loved it.

- Rod

Rod,

Thanks for writing in to tell us how much you like our comic! We're really glad that you're enjoying it so far.

We are hoping that our comic will be well received by all sorts of people after it is finished. It's our desire to show that even gay people can be heroes, plus have a successful love life! (And I think if you look hard enough, you will find that most heterosexuals aren't as closed-minded as you think!)

Make sure to visit our site again from time to time as we continue the comic. We have a lot of fun stuff planned ahead!

Thanks again for taking the time to write us!

Hello Chayne,
 
I just wanted to email you and thank you for making this comic. Your artwork and talent is truly awesome, and as an artist and avid comic reader myself, this is the kind of Superhero comicbook artwork that I've always wanted to create. Keep up the great work!
 
P.S.- Will you be updating again? I anxiously (and patiently) await the next exciting episode.
 
Respectfully,
The 13th Phoenix

Dear 13th Phoenix,

Wow! Thanks for the praise. I was really glad to receive your e-mail, it totally made my day!

My inspiration for Boy Meets Hero comes from having read thousands of comics growing up and wishing there was a gay relationship that I could relate to. I also love super heroes, (especially the hot ones!) and I wanted to create characters that are heroic and colorful.

My partner Russ and I work everyday on this project and try to add a new page every Monday. We have some exciting stuff coming up, so stay tuned! We have planned out the main story arc and will collect the web comic into a printed form once it is finished.

It's awesome to hear from a fellow artist. I'm flattered that you like Russell's and my artwork. We work hard on Boy Meets Hero and our payoff is hearing that people enjoy what we create!

Thanks so much for taking the time to write and let us know you like the comic!

Sincerely,
Chayne

November 3rd, 2005

I was surfing across random webcomics when I saw "Boy Meets Hero." I think it's a fairly new idea, beautifully drawn, and just plain great.  I like it when things shed positive light on the gay community. Hopefully it'll continue, and I hope you don't mind the (rather plain) praise I've given.

Travis P.

Dear Travis,
Thank you for writing us! It was great to get some fan-mail after all of the hard work Russ and I put into the comic. Shedding a positive light on the gay community is our highest priority. I really want to let people know that gays can be heroes too! And even though Blue Comet is afraid of his sexuality for the time being, Justin will always be there to help him as he discovers his path!

Thank you also for complimenting our art. We appriciate praise in any form! Together, Russ and I put extra effort to make sure Boy Meets Hero is a good as we can make it. We definitely plan to continue. Be sure to check back each Monday as we add a new page and further the adventures of Derek and Justin!

Russ and Chayne

Great work!!!!! Love the look of you comic. I hope to see it printed. My name is Roger Moore, but I go as R-Man. My comic site is www.manandroid.com. Its gay science fiction...Check it out I would love your opinion. I give you a review as well.
 
PS Would you like to trade links to our site?

Roger Moore (a.k.a. R-Man)

Hi and thanks for the compliment. It's always a rush to get praise, especially from other comic creators. We checked out "Man and Android" and thought it was awesome!  Your story is really funny and engaging! We'd love to trade links! We're in the process of adding a few links on our home page so we'll add manandroid.com once we get it updated.

It'll be great to spread the word about our sites! Boy Meets Hero is a work in progress and has many more pages until our story is finished. So far we have 24 pages pencilled. We are shooting for around 80 or so to finish the story. Once it is completed we plan to print it in one collected graphic novel and then try to get it into book stores and comic shops.

Thanks again for liking our work! We'll be in touch!

Russ and Chayne

And of course, a letter from Mom...

Wow! Fun, great scripting and enough humor to make me chuckle. Keep it up!
A fan all around.

-Kathy Avery

Proof positive that I have the coolest Mom in the world! Thanks for all of the support you have always given Russ and me. Also, thanks for all of the acceptance you have given us regarding our lifestyle.

-Love, Chayne
