After I read issue #12, I returned to some of the issues of Sex Criminals during its first and second arcs, and in doing so I started to erase the doubts I'd been having. This series' greatest asset is its ability to seemingly reach inside you and lay bare your innermost feelings. Yes, it makes silly sex jokes, and sometimes seems quite sure that it is much cooler than you, but the way it discusses sex, life, and anxiety can often be painfully authentic. Unfortunately, there isn't a whole lot of that on display in issue #12 alone as it seems the series is now relying on the strength of the arc more so than the separate issues. Fans of the series definitely should not miss it, but I have a feeling that those who are waiting for the trade might have a better time of it.
