What doesn't kill you makes you stronger...at least- that’s what healthy people say. Valentine Virago has always struggled with her health. Her rare autoimmune disorder has defied all treatment- and as she grew older- it defied even classification. You see- Valentine can take her immune system and weaponize it. What would just be a normal sneeze to the rest of us- she can turn into a projectile of bloody miasma. Just as a start. Fed up with being a test subject- poked and prodded by pushy doctors- Valentine has gone on the lam in search of the freedom to be herself. Unfortunately- interested parties want her back in their care- and they are sending goons in hazmat suits. Led by Jono- her one-time nurse and potential love interest- they’re offering her a spot in a private medical facility run by Jono's parents. Val isn’t one for institutions- however- and what some may see as a safe haven- she sees as a prison— and who wants to be trapped in a prison- when you're already trapped in your own body? Writer Tini Howard (Marian Heretic- X-Men) teams up with artist Amilcar Pinna (X-Men: First Class- Galactic) and colorist Amanda Grazini (Creepshow- The Cryos) for their new series Sicko- a surreal story perfect for fans of Doom Patrol and mutant adventures of all kinds.
