Really enjoyed this body-switching graphic novel. The villain‘s reasons were...extremely arbitrary and dumb. But I enjoyed the story a lot.

I really liked this one. Two people switch bodies and lives. One is a hit man and the other a housewife. They each change the others lives.
Freaky Friday meets Goodfellas. Body swap Noir. You get the idea. I really liked this one. I liked that it didn‘t make this a comedy of errors and kind of revelled in the (varying shades of) darkness in the protagonists lives. I liked that it started to explore identity and what it means for these characters. I hope there is more in this series - but even if there isn‘t this a good open ended standalone.
Really good concept and solid scripting, but CROSSWINDS first volume is hampered a bit by static art that feels traced and a fairly rushed plot that doesn‘t give its characters enough room to breathe. For a book in which a male hit man and a female housewife swap bodies, it ends up seeming like a conventional but enjoyable crime story. Still, Simone is a sharp character writer and the book ends in an interesting place, so I am excited for more.
