Little Stranger by Edie Fake

“Little Stranger” by Edie Fake is a strange and absorbing nsfw comic that captures the feeling of weirdness and discomfort that is/can be part of existing in a body. It is explicit, gruesome, evocative, and a perplexing read.

When I say “nsfw” I mean an entire book of beautiful but amazing comics that are somewhere between erotic and body horror, depending on your kinks. It’s a quick read, but if you like it you’ll probably keep going back to different sections to re-examine the different narratives happening through the book. It depicts themes of dysphoria and dysmorphia without being a book about feeling bad. It seems to be more about how to feel good after feeling bad. It’ll be either totally your thing or you’ll know ten pages in that it’s not for you.
