There were several graphic medicine relevant Eisner Award winners at San Diego Comic-Con last weekend. See the full list at the Comics Beat coverage here, noting especially that our GMIC Award winner, Jellyfish, also won an Eisner Award.

Lynda Barry has been sharing comics about her experiences with (and treatment for) SSHL: Sudden Sensorionural Hearing Loss. She wants to share the important message that, “If you are experiencing sudden or rapidly degrading hearing loss in one ear, this is a medical emergency, and time is of the essence. Seek medical help immediately and make it clear that you need a test for Sudden Hearing Loss. (SSHL) Ear Nose and Throat clinics, Urgent Care and Emergency rooms should react quickly to these words.”
See her instagram for more recent comics on this topic.
