The series wraps on Chapter 44, entitled “Grace Under Pressure.” Dreading the inevitable confrontation with his parents, who vocally oppose his homosexuality, Amal Chakravarthy decides to take an unplanned side trip to Graceland Tattoo and Piercing – ostensibly searching for TJ. Eventually, they reach their destination, both of them far happier, arguably far healthier, than they were when they first set foot in the car. Of companionship, alternately friendly and sexual, but almost always playful. Weaver’s breezy buddy dramedy webcomic The Less Than Epic Adventures of TJ and Amal, despite the title, tells a big story. Rhode Island, not heaven, though one would be forgiven for any conflation of the two.Į.K. They don’t know each other, but they’re headed to Providence together, anyway. Amal’s sloughing off expectations that he settle down with a woman, sire a cadre of children, and continue lying about his heterosexuality. TJ’s sloughing off a drug-running career and hopes for a safer future. They both need an escape from the Bay Area and a hard reset of their difficult lives.
