Sex Criminals

Sex Criminals is an ongoing comic book series that was first published in September of 2015. It’s brilliantly written by Matt Fraction and beautifully illustrated by Chip Zdarsky. The concept is superb and would make for a potentially brilliant movie.

It’s about Suzie, a librarian, and Jon, an actor. The pair meet at a party and sleep together, at which point they discover that they share the ability to freeze time when they orgasm. A movie would essentially be like Adam Sandler’s Click, but it would actually be well written and be a hell of a lot more adult-oriented.

There was talk early in 2015 that Matt Fraction – who created the comic, as well as being its writer – had struck a deal with Universal Television to turn Sex Criminals into a television show. If that’s the case, a big screen adaptation would be unlikely, but there’s absolutely no doubting that it would make a great movie and would certainly be a completely new spin on the comic book movie genre.
