...I want to see your smile every time I wake up. I want to hear your voice whispering huskily in my ear...I want your body to always be close to mine. I want your thoughts to focus on me almost all the time... I want your lips to touch mine. I simply want you. No homo!
— Jack Stephen P, No Homo Gang
The No Homo Gang is a DeviantArt webcomic made by TheGweny. She likely had the idea somewhere in time but started to make more established comics in 2012. The story centers around four young adults; Jack P., Joel N., Chris M., and Chan K. as they go through their lives as friends and JUST FRIENDS, and the rumbles and tumbles of their little Love Triangles. In short, it's basically a Romantic Comedy with the heavy teen drama.
This series provides examples of:
