A bright, happy, punk rock sci fi adventure that is queer as shit. 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 queergirl partner in crime), Kim & Kim focuses on the power and meaning of female friendships as engines of validation. A day-glo action adventure that's bursting with energy and enthusiasm, it puts queer women and trans women front and center, with a story that embraces the absurd alongside realistic pathos. 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. Bitch Magazine Kim & Kim are twentysomething besties out to make a name for themselves in the wild world of interdimensional cowboy law enforcement. Centering these characters was important for Visaggio, who was undergoing her own transition process while writing the series.' Oh and BTW, both of the main characters are queer-Kim D is a cisgender bisexual woman and Kim Q is trans and self-identifies as queer, though she's still sorting out the specifics of sexuality. The Advocate 'The comic feels like Tank Girl set in the world of Cowboy Bebop. Gail Simone (Batgirl, Secret Six) 'This outer space comic book series with a decidedly queer- and female-centric tale is what our modern culture needs.' The Mary Sue 'Get this most excellent book!'
