This is my favourite episode of "Sex Criminals" in a while. It's a quiet issue, exploring depression and alienation and its relationship to sex. It's like some of the key characters here are suffering from a sexual ennui--unhappily going through the motions, in some cases, an attempt at happiness that seems empty in the midst of the characters' individual suffering. I really like the subtle nature of this issue, the facial acting employed by Chip Zdarsky...this is a really good issue.
