A brutal, hard-on-the-eye (and stomach) story
Bewertet mit 4 Sternen
In a world where almost any kind of surgery is possible, there are also addicts who can't stop themselves from performing operations on their body, becoming addicted to the procedure. But there are also people who are not willingly patients to a group of surgeons, being used as study subjects and obscure experiments. Two people, an ex-cop and a mother with a mutilated daughter, band together to find the so-called "doctor" and his minions to bring an end to their brutal work. But what they find might be more than they hoped for....
A brutal, hard-on-the-eye (and stomach) story that had me glued to the pages with a queasy feeling while reading. The illustrations are ruthless, repulsive and almost unimaginable, at times giving you a sick feeling of voyeurism though you can't stop looking further. I both wish the story would have been longer with regards to character building and background story, while at the same time being glad it was as short as it was, sparing me from any more of such intense images. While looking like some really exploitive sick stuff at first glance, the story also unavoidably triggers thoughts about the possibilities of modern medicine and surgery when abused by wrong intentions.
