The Graphic Medicine International Collective is thrilled to share the launch of our Frontline Comics Project website! This project, spearheaded by GMIC board members Alex Thomas and Michael Green, has been 2 years in the making and is the result of intentional and mindful, collaboration between frontline healthcare workers and comics artists – plus the careful work of our facilitators.
Each of these 7 comics tells a story from the early days of COVID-19.
With support from the Penn State College of Medicine (notably the Department of Medicine, the Division of General Internal Medicine, the Kienle Center for Humanistic Medicine, and the Department of Humanities), we were able to pay both storytellers and artists.
Great! Look forward to seeing it.
