Money Shot, Vol. 1 by Sarah Beattie, Tim Seeley

4.0

I was really unsure about this before starting it, it seems like one of those things that is either going to be brilliant or awful and I had been re-reading some early Hack/Slash recently and found it to be tending more towards the later than I remembered, but this was actually really fun. Don't me wrong, a group of scientists that start making porn to fund their space travel missions is entirely ridiculous but it was done in such a way that it was hilarious and also weirdly touching at times. I think a lot of credit goes to amazing art here as well. When you have a story that is so heavily centered around sex and drawing people naked you really need an artist that has a firm grip on anatomy [something which a lot of comics artists seem to be weirdly lacking] and can draw different body types or it turns stale really quickly. The art in this is great and I think that is what took it to the next level a lot of the time.
