And now: the only business Suzie and Jon want to be into is each other's, but the bank -- and life -- have other ideas.

"Part romance, part sex comedy, and part heist drama, [SEX CRIMINALS] manages to turn a story about two lovers who rob banks with orgasms into the most emotionally realistic and relatable sex comic ever made." -- Wired Magazine
"SEX CRIMINALS grapples with no shortage of subjects; grief, mental health, self-medication, consent, rejection, and butt plugs are all handled thoughtfully. It's hilarious, considered, and sex-positive, but if you're just into cuddling that's fine, too." -- The Ringer
"Who knew that Image Comics (...) would become the premier publisher of forward-thinking genre comics? Consider (SEX CRIMINALS) Exhibit A." -- Rolling Stone
"A smart, funny, sex-positive comic book for readers of all genders and predilections." -- Slate
"(T)he story transcends the sex and the jokes to take a hard, wet look at what humans do when we do sex... An astounding read." - BoingBoing

About the AuthorMatt Fraction writes comic books out in the woods and lives with his wife, writer Kelly Sue DeConnick, his two children, two dogs, a cat, a bearded dragon, and a yard full of coyotes and crows. Surely there's a metaphor there. He's a New York Times-best-selling donkus of comics like Sex Criminals (winner of the 2014 Will Eisner Award for Best New Series and named TIME Magazine's Best Comic of 2013), ODY-C, and Casanova. Under their company Milkfed Criminal Masterminds, Inc., Fraction and DeConnick are currently developing television for NBC/Universal.
Chip Zdarsky is the current writer of
Batman for DC Comics (somehow). For Image Comics he's the writer of
Newburn and the writer/illustrator of the award-winning
Public Domain.
His previous work includes an acclaimed run on
Daredevil and
Spider-Man: Life Story for Marvel, and he's the illustrator of Image Comics'
Sex Criminals--an Eisner Award winning series and
New York Times Bestseller (despite all the penis jokes).
