I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Sex Criminals Vol 1: ONe Weird Trick by Matt Fraction (Writer, Artist), Chip Zdarsky (Writer, Artist), Becka Kinzie (Color Flatting), Christopher Sebela (Color Flattening), Thomas K (Editing), and Drew Gill (Production)


Suzie's dad, who worked at a bank, is thrown out the window of his office after the stock market crash of 1997 when Suzie was young. Her mother gets lost in a bottle and Suzie becomes essentially an orphan.  When taking a bath she discovers the joys of masturbation, while also uncovering the magical realm she calls the "Quiet Place".  It's a place of silence and color where time is stopped.

When she gets older she goes and works for a library. The bank is going to close the library and tear it down and just sell it as a vacant lot.  Suzie is trying to save the books out of the library by having a book party.  While there she meets a young man whose favorite book is the same as her's.  His name is Jon and he also has the ability to go to the "Quiet Place" only he calls it "Cumworld" and when they're there together it's really magical.

Jon, who works at the bank, gets the idea to steal enough money to save the library from the bank by stealing it from the bank vaults when they're in the "Quiet Place".  What they don't know is that there's a Sex Police out there that is set upon stopping them.  This is a very creative and interesting start to a series.  The art is very soft and dreamy which suits the storyline perfectly.  I really loved this comic. It had humor, intelligence, adventure, and an excellent plot that easily keeps you flipping pages to find out what happens next. I can't wait to read the next volume to learn the fate of the intrepid heroes. I highly recommend this book.
