Pussycats #0

This week I have mostly been reading Pussycats #0.


I didn't get the gist of the story, but I think the comic might be important as it's the first porn crossover comic I've seen. I've only been collecting comics for about six years, so I'm sure someone has tried this before; after all, there's nothing new under the sun, right? But this comic has some pretty big names backing it - Karen Summer, Priya Anjali Rai, and Tanya Tate to name but three. Those links are all NSFW (Not Safe For Work), by the way. 
The comic itself is a black-and-white line drawing affair, with a few panels depicting women in lingerie or actually having sex. I was a bit confused after reading it, as I wasn't sure who was who, but I'm hoping that might shake itself out in later issues; this is #0 of 4.
Other honourable mentions must go to Descender and Suiciders, both of which I'm looking forward to reading more of:


Suiciders looks like a good read, the artwork is good and the juxtaposition of the different narrative threads works well 
Descender is a different affair, set in a future where robots are classed as living, and humans have been (more or less) wiped out. 
Both titles have started strongly and I'm sure will reward further reading.
