Mainstream comic book storytelling is fairly straightforward these days. Experimental narrative direction or use of the tools such as lettering, panel borders and direction of read are often ignored – with notable exceptions, such as Jonathan Hickman, Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie or Ryan North and Erica Henderson.

Well, with today's Kim & Kim #2, add Magdalene Visaggio, Eva Cabrera and Claudia Aguirre to that list.

And then…

Kim & Kim 002-016

And this isn't a cheat. It's a $3.99 book with 26 pages of story, including those black pages. Something that the likes of The Wicked + The Divine and Secret Wars have played with, successfully.

Kim & Kim #2 is published today from Black Mask.
