The final 20 or so pages of Birdland. I mean, pardon the terrible pun, but nothing else comes close.

I'll never stop singing the praises of Otava Heikkila's full color "Sasha From the Gym" about two transmasculine characters. Like everything Heikkila does, it's beautifully illustrated. Speaking of Iron Circus, he also puts out "Letters for Lucardo" with them that's worth mentioning for its queer sex scenes too.

So many scenes from Sex Criminals... but especially the first time the Suzie and Jon realize they both have the same power. "Jon... is your dick glowing?"

The scenes from the manga Battle Royale were my first very explicit ones and that’s those I remember the most. Indian Summer by Hugo Pratt and Milo Manara leaved a mark too.

Lost Girls by Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie was also marvelous, and Promethea’s sex scene was fantastic in its own way.

I'm not sure if this counts as "comics", but for me it's a lot of the guest strips that Oh Joy Sex Toy has run over the years. They've really given me an increased understanding of the diversity of experience in human sexuality.

I will honestly say that SAGA was my entry into the comics scene, and although this wasn't a sex scene, I remember being at work on my lunch break reading the comic in the break room while eating, and getting to the scene where Prince Robot has a dream and wakes up with what felt like at the time a full page of 8 inches or so -- I closed the book so fast and did the whole check around to see if anyone else was looking, and quickly went to flip the page so I could read some more. I learned my lesson reading mature comic books at work but I will never forget that moment! Hahaha.

I already love these selections, thanks. I felt conflicted sending that dispatch, but this a welcome temporary respite from the headlines. Hope everyone is well!

I really love most of Stjepan Šejić's work, not least of which is the Sunstone series. I love how he manages to convey not just the physicality of what are often some pretty hot scenes, but the raw and vulnerable humanity. Some of his best scenes are actually more funny than sexy as the characters share what feel like really real moments in time.

The most memorable sex scene for me was Black Kiss issue 1 …. Blew my 16 year old mind … the subsequent issues were memorable too but that first issue was like nothing I’d ever seen in comics

The end of EO number one. By Franz Henkel and Tim Vigil. Not a sexy scene by any means, but the m-effer sticks in the grey matter.

Memoral because it was hands down the worst was in Moore's Neonomicon. A writer I trust gave it a blurb on the back, so I bought it. Any guess who that was? I feel like you owe me $19.99, and nightmare free sleeps.

I want to give a shout out to every sparkly Chip Zdarsky fuck in Sex Criminals. Magnificent. Plus, sorry "to be continued," "letter daddies" might have been the best ever back of the comic community.

I loved it, even when they taught me that I did not have a superpower as a kid that allowing me to find porn in every woods I went into. Apparently, all of nature around the world had porn in it in the 80s. Still not sure why though. Just an 80s unsloved mystery like crop circles, or why all dog shit used to be white.

Congratulations Ron Kirkley!

The two that immediately come to mind are from Bendis and Oeming’s Powers series. The scene where the demon masterbates on Christian Walker’s face. The other was the scene where the female character used her electricity powers on herself to get off.

Motor Crush got me into Babs Tarr’s art. She’s got a subscription for super hot, NSFW art/doodles/other fun stuff on Patreon (it’s called Spicy), that’s 👌🏼.
