From: NewNowNext

Kim & Kim


These intergalactic bounty hunters came onto the scene in 2016—Kim is trans, and Kim is her queer partner in crime and mischief.

Part Tank Girl, part Star Wars, all fun adventure, Black Mask StudiosKim & Kim was created by writer Magdalene Visaggio, artist Eva Cabrera and inker Claudia Aguirre, who present us with a queer-positive narrative including a trans lead character, a rarity in media of any kind.

Vassagio created Kim & Kim while she was transitioning, and it’s a fun, heartfelt and meaningful story that doesn’t belabor its inclusiveness.

Kim & Kim’s initial 20,000-copy run sold out, so the odds of another series are good. In the meantime, you can pick up issues 1-3 on the Black Mask site.
