I did not expect this comic to be quite as grotesque as it was, but boy howdy was it ever disgusting. Maybe not if you’re one of those (almost certainly fictional) people who like mosquitoes, but if you’re as disgusted and annoyed by those creatures as I am, this one is just a step or two past completely plausible. The premise is simple enough: nature dude goes camping, settles in for a good night’s sleep, and is absolutely assaulted by mosquitoes. He gets through a thoroughly miserable night and wakes up to find himself… changed. No, he doesn’t become a super powered mosquito man. He’s just, as the title might imply, more than a little bit swelled up. He also can’t really communicate verbally any more, which makes his search for help a bit complicated. That search also raises far more questions than answers, as “I’ll have to return to the man who formed me” has sure stuck in my brain. Can our hero be saved? If so, how, and would it be a good idea? This is a series of full page images, so you can really take in every bit of the swelled up imagery on display. It’s also all kinds of disturbing, and if you think that means I’m recommending it unreservedly, you would be correct. $8 (or $22 for a bundle of four comics)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
