I have been waiting not so patiently for almost an entire year for a new issue of Sex Criminals.
There's not another comic like it, nothing as sexual or raw but equally as funny and dramatic and thoughtful. It's truly one of a kind and I have truly missed it.

The (really supersized bumper) issue starts with a recap (which honestly, you kind of need after ten months) and Matt Fraction is as conversational and meta as always, and funny, never forget how funny this comic is.

So after a ten page recap we finally get into the issue, which is essentially all about Jon and Suze's relationship and them trying to figure out what they want in the future and how they're going to fit into each other's lives and their goals. Jon is kinda reluctant, but Suze isn't pushing it, and the kind of have some sort of plan written down in between all the sex they're having.
It's nice and sweet in a way. These guys are slightly directionless, but they're trying to make it work, and that's something really relatable.

We didn't get a ton of development with the sex cops or any character who isn't Jon or Suze but it was just nice to be back in this world.

Man I've missed Matt and Chip.
