 Sex #1 (2013) third print $2.99 Quantity
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Joe Casey (A/CA) Piotr Kowalski Second Print FIRST ISSUE - COLLECTOR'S ITEM! Finally, a good reason for you come in the comicbook store -- to buy SEX! Simon Cooke has retired from his own 'alternative lifestyle' and returned to the city he'd previously sworn to protect. Now he's just another average citizen -- or is he? The term 'adult' has never been so appropriate as it is when it applies to SEX. Date Available: 05/01/2013
BONUS REVIEW by John "Doc" Schaefer
 Oh brother, here we go again! Any time I see the one per customer note, I know that the crazies have been let loose. So much so that I (who work at a comic book store!) couldn't find a copy when the 1st printing came out. Ridiculous! So when I finally did get a copy of the second print, I was ready to hate this puppy from the get-go. And with a title like Sex and the fact that it is a mature audience only title, I was brimming with self-rightous pomposity. But then the unfortunate happened. Joe Casey did a heck of a job on the story. The characters and set up are well handled and with the exception of the main character's trip to a sex club, the title of the book wouldn't even apply. I believe if I've read into this enough, that the title actually in a reference to the main character's addiction to a lifestyle that he has given up on and if he can remain distant from that lifestyle. This book is a flashback to the classic stories from Penthouse Comixx magazine back in the 80/90's. Not for the young but an interesting book for the discriminating reader. Worth a peek...if you can find one. I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
