Best Guilty Pleasure You Shouldn’t Feel Guilty About:

 

Sex Criminals by Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky from Image Comics.

 

You think it’s doing to be dirty – it is.

Girl has sex. Stops time.

Girl meets boy. Have sex. Stop time together.

Rob banks.

 

Sex Criminals isn’t just about sex and crime. It’s a story of falling in love, feeling insecure about sexuality, fear and doubt. Two people who stop time when they have sex bond together over their heartbreaking and often hilarious sexual history and thrill of robbing banks. It’s strange, funny, heartfelt and fun with a great visual style.

 

Chip Zdardsky may even be my favorite cover artist of the year for this risque and enjoyable book.
