Tom Bouden's latest book in English is rather different from his other two, The Importance of Being Earnest and Max & Sven. Don't buy this book for the character development: although me meet again Max and his lover Karl, we don't get much of Bouden's brand of gentle humor. What we get with In Bed with David & Jonathan is sex. A lot of sex.
That being said, the book is a fun read, and Bouden's characters, drawn in a less round style and in a more realistic way, are still very hot and cute.
The structure of this graphic novel is also interesting: Bouden had fun with a book-within-a-book narrative. Max and Karl decide to find another guy for a three-way, and they end up meeting Bouden himself (who playfully draws himself in a hunky way), who, after sex, show them his all-new porn comic showcasing David and Jonathan (yes, the men from the title), a wordless tale which fills the second part of the book.
So, you know, it's like reading The Manuscript Found in Saragossa , only with more gay sex.
