The Graceview Patient by Caitlin Starling

Margaret lives with a rare autoimmune condition that has destroyed her life, leaving her isolated. It has no cure, but she’s making do as best she can—until she’s offered a fully paid-for spot in an experimental medical trial at Graceview Memorial. The conditions are simple, if grueling: she will live at the hospital as a full-time patient, subjecting herself to the near-total destruction of her immune system and its subsequent regeneration. The trial will essentially kill most of, but not all of her. But as the treatment progresses and her body begins to fail, she stumbles upon something sinister living and spreading within the hospital. Unsure of what's real and what is just medication-induced delusion, Margaret struggles to find a way out as her body and mind succumb further to the darkness lurking throughout Graceview's halls.

‪Rat Queens: Volumes 1-5

‪Rat Queens: Volumes 1-5 is amazing in all the best ways. It’s a sword and sorcery comic with badass women, lots of fighting, vulnerability, barfights, and really gorgeous art. The Queens are excellent, the world is well-developed... seriously, go read these.

It’s casually queer with complex relationships (romantic, platonic, and everything in between). Volume five does some really cool things, twisting the established format (not that it was formal to start) both narratively and stylistically. I could list tiny things for a while, but I don’t want to spoil even tiny things. If you like comics/graphic novels, definitely check these out. If you haven’t tried any before, as long is you’re fine with blood and gore these would be a good place to start.
