Part One

2. Sex Criminals

Wow, this series. Sex Criminals is the truest example of “you just have to read it to understand what makes it great.” Simply put, there are certain people in the world who are able to freeze time when they orgasm. Two of these people decide to use this ability to rob banks and save their local library, like a couple of modern day Robin Hoods. The writing is about the funniest you’ll find in comics, with gut-busting artwork to match. As the series continues, creators Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky just get bolder and better.
