KIM & KIM Vol. 1

Kim & Kim are twenty-something besties out to make a name for themselves in the wild world of inter-dimensional cowboy law enforcement. In a massive “screw you” to their parents and the authorities, they decide to hijack some high stakes bounty – and end up in way over their heads. Kim & Kim is a day-glo action adventure that’s bursting with energy and enthusiasm. Blending the punk exuberance of TANK GIRL with the buddy adventure wackiness of SUPERBAD (if Michael Cera was a trans woman and Jonah Hill a queer girl partner in crime), Kim & Kim is a bright, happy, punk rock sci-fi adventure that is queer as shit. Collects Kim & Kim #1-4.

Well, there’s Justice League, Justice League of America, Justice League America, Justice League Europe, Justice League International, Justice League Extreme, Justice League Task Force, Justice League Dark, Justice League Elite, Justice League 3000…but I guess in theory there’s only one Justice League.  I guess.

Anyway, Justice League and Justice League of America are on sale now.
