...medium, porn comix seem spent. With dullness and utilitarianism, they whore themselves out to men who no longer find the Batman and Robin relationship satisfying. Recently, though, the "Dirty Stories" series of books, by putting the intelligence and talent of today's top comix artists toward the pursuit of smut, reinvigorates the tired old stud into something approaching...
