Cicatrix

More about the book

A powerful study in introspection, inheritance, and the manifestation of hypochondria by a talented indie cartoonist. Beautifully illustrated and poignantly told, the author investigates the guilt they carry as a young Filipino person born into a family that benefited from the Marcos regime, and how that materializes within the physical body." Cicatrix is beautiful and deeply honest, a clear-eyed look at something strange and unexplainable―family, harm, guilt, and our own fragile bodies." – Eleanor Davis, The Hard Tomorrow2022 Broken Frontier Award Best One-Shot
