Valentine Virago has always struggled with her health. Her rare autoimmune disorder has defied all treatment, and as she grew older, it defied even classification. You see, Valentine can take her immune system and weaponize it. What would just be a normal sneeze to the rest of us, she can turn into a projectile of bloody miasma. Just as a start. Fed up with being a test subject, poked and prodded by pushy doctors, Valentine has gone on the lam in search of the freedom to be herself. Unfortunately, interested parties want her back in their care, and they are sending goons in hazmat suits. Led by Jono, her one-time nurse and potential love interest, they’re offering her a spot in a private medical facility run by Jono's parents. Val isn’t one for institutions, however, and what some may see as a safe haven, she sees as a prison— and who wants to be trapped in a prison, when you're already trapped in your own body? Writer Tini Howard (Marian Heretic, X-Men) teams up with artist Amilcar Pinna (X-Men: First Class, Galactic) and colorist Amanda Grazini (Creepshow, The Cryos) for their new series Sicko, a surreal story perfect for fans of Doom Patrol and mutant adventures of all kinds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: 0.7em; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(140, 255, 0);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.7em;text-align:center;background:#191919;color:#fff;padding:8px 0;margin:0;\"\u003e Direct Pricing exclusively at \u003cstrong\u003espookyelectro.cc \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: 0.7em;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIgnition Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWriter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTini Howard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmilcar Pinna\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCover Artist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJuliet Nneka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCover Attributes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVariant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrim Size (Approx.)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6.6 x 10.2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAge Rating\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eT+ (Teen Plus)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC \/ ISBN\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e81019628031101021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDistributor Code\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMAY261541\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eℹ️ Product specifications provided by distributor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch1\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQuality \u0026amp; Condition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003ePre-sales: 9.0+ grade standard (may include minor spine ticks or slight cover marks)\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eBlind Bags\/Boxes: 8.0+ grade standard (contents accepted as-is)\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eReleased titles: Same 9.0+ standard as pre-sales, unless stated otherwise\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eIndustry-standard imperfections possible: printing variations, minor ink bleeds, slight creases\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eIssues?
