American Virgin Volume 2: Going Down

American Virgin Volume 2: Going Down by Steven T. Seagle, Becky Cloonan.  The successful thing about this series so far seems to be the surprising balance of sleaze and reasoned discourse.   For a series about a young religious virgin and inspirational speaker, I was expecting a lot more fun-poking at the parallel Christian culture that, quite frankly, often deserves it.  Going Down follows the moral conflict of Adam as he buries his fiancée and struggles with feelings of hatred towards her killer and his own repressed sexuality. One conflict is resolved, but with this big a can of worms, there's surely more to come. It's a plot I'm surprised I enjoy, but one I'll look for in the future.
