Kim & Kim, Vol 1: This Glamorous, High-Flying Rockstar Life (1) Paperback – January 3, 2017

This was an absolute blast!! Described as "equal parts Cowboy Bebop and Broad City" and "Blade Runner meets Jem and the Holograms," Kim & Kim is a fun space romp with two kick-butt bounty hunters who take no crap.Like, I feel if I go too much more into detail I'll just be summarizing the whole book, and really you just need to read it yourselves. However, I will say that the Fighting Kims (sorry, Kim D.) take on all comers, especially when the rent is due.Not only are the characters a ton of fun, but the story also has an awful lot of heart. Both Kims have complicated family lives that rear up at the most inopportune time, along with pissing off a known galactic big bad in the course of their duties collecting a huge bounty.Anyway, I highly recommend this one to any and everyone.

I really enjoyed this comic! It is witty, funny, and heartful. An excellent combination of adventure and satire. HIghly recommend.

Kim & Kim is a really interesting and original fantasy sci-fi. Fun, well-paced, well-developed, Kim & Kim's story is at once a little familiar and totally unprecedented in a world that is equally so. The characters are the most phenomenal element of the Kim & Kim universe - diverse and unapologetic, they all demand a certain respect. No one is a diverse character for diversity's sake, but there is also no chance that any of these characters will let you downplay, ignore, or discredit their identities either, and I love that. These characters are people first and they are dynamic!I was really thrown by the conclusion (?) of the Quilt storyline, but I have a feeling it may come back around in future issues so perhaps there may still be a more satisfying resolution to that particular arc. Overall, I really enjoyed the first volume.

Witty conversation with an interesting and dynamic story line. Each character brings a unique presence and perspective. Also subtly addresses social issues but does not distract from the story. I love it, highly recommend it.

I expected to enjoy this comic, but I didn't expect it to be one of my favorite comics I've ever read. Highly recommended, fun and silly while still giving you characters that have depth and you really want to root for.

This is Rupaul's Drag Race meets Sailor Moon meets Star Wars meets Jem and the Holograms, but with more drug use and cussing. I wasn't that impressed with the cussing etc. The story line I felt dragged some compared to other comics, the art work was alright, but it wasn't super stellar, I felt it could have been much crisper (think the Jem and the Holograms comic before it went downhill). This for sure brings about its own nitch in the comic book world, and I found it to be alright, but I think it has so much more potential to be so much more. A great starter and I hope it continues on and gets better.

I've been a comics reader for the last two decades, and a book hasn't made me this excited since I read Sandman in high school. Look, are you interested in punk rock, bounty hunting ladies in space? If so, this is 100% the book for you.

I really enjoyed this! To be honest, I wasn't so sure after chapter 1 - I've been mostly reading Marvel comics lately, and this is a change of pace. I spent the beginning being a little confused about who everyone was, but as soon as I started chapter 2, I really got into it. I like the characters and their interplanetary lifestyle, and I love the art. There were also several lines that made me laugh, which I always appreciate. (I do own a copy, although it doesn't show up here as a verified purchase, as it was bought by through a different family member's account.)
