Sex Criminals Volume 3: Three the Hard Way

Here is another fine volume in this wonderful series. It’s hard to think how this could lose its sparkle.With another volume comes another character, or more than one as the supporting cast grows. While this is one of the keys to longevity you just can’t get enough of Jon and Suzie and pine a little for when the book was theirs alone.There is a lot of fourth wall breaking here, so much so it’s surprising the roof hasn’t fallen in. From character’s asides to the reader to full on multipage conversations with the caricatured authors. This can be a little jarring, and also hysterical. It certainly isn’t your average work.Just as the last volume taught us real world facts about contraception this delivers a dry as a bone(r) lecture on the repression, or at least trivialisation, of female sexuality. It’s hard to image a book where the serious and the sublime have been fused so well.The art is excellent with new sex powers getting their own unique look. This book fuses the basic lines of a Chris Ware title with the amazing colours of Jordie Bellaire, and out comes something inimitable which fits the emotions of the piece to a T.Double Thumbs Up!

I really enjoyed Volume 1 - some great ideas well delivered. Volume 2 I enjoyed less so (but still a great deal) but with a nagging doubt.And now Volume 3.... sadly it continues, and amplifies, its downward trajectory. It seems to have lost the warmth and true playfulness of the original and replaced it with something a bit more snarling and attention seeking.There is no real narrative arc, to this volume, and its only sense of purpose seems to steer the series from soft to hard(er) core, presumably for the teenage boy market segment.There are still small vignettes that hark back to the feel of the original (Suzie using Jon's member as a torch, the 'I love you'/'I'll make the coffee' piece) but they are few and far between.To borrow a line from the series, I can't help feeling that this one is a bit of an embarrassment to the scene.

Sex criminals 3 continues to be random and hilarious. This series is cool, clever, imaginative. The writers and artists are seriously just having loads of fun with this. Can't wait to see how it will further progress. I'm yet again impressed and can't wait for more.P.s there is a cum demon pmsl

Dirty, dirty, naughty boys!

this is one of those graphic novels you explain to friends and it's sounds soo bad but when you finally read it you are hooked absolute genius and halarious.
