Comic Book Imagines World Without AIDS

Andrew Belonsky July 6, 2011

OurLoveIsReal Comic book writer Sam Humphries, known for his work on the CBGB comic book, and illustrator Steven Sanders, who has worked on Uncanny X-Men, recently teamed up for what critics are calling a "splendidly perverse" sci-fi one-shot, Our Love Is Real.

Here's a summation of this limited edition funny book:

FIVE YEARS AFTER THE AIDS VACCINE… Plantsexuals riot in the streets for equal rights. Humans fall in love with dogs. And crystals are more than just jewelry.

A chance encounter on the job changes a riot cop’s life forever as he finds himself caught in a bizarre love triangle that blurs romance, crime, and lust beyond recognition.

While social conservatives will no doubt have a kanipshin conniption over the book, fan boys and girls are already clamoring for Our Love Is Real.

If you're among them, you had better act fast: Humphries and Sanders are only printing 300 copies, which are being sold at select stores across the nation. There will, however, also be a digital edition.

I've included the complete list of stores that are carrying Our Love Is Real, AFTER THE JUMP…
