Nice drawings.

Yet another absurd James Harvey comic trying to tackle modern issues in a weirdly prescient way. This one follows Tomo, an "incel" on a doomed "looksmaxxing" quest, before either of those things really had a name. The repo-men coming for his girlfriend's butt implants had me cackling. The titular masterplasty procedure obviously lends itself to some properly gruesome bodyhorror. James Harvey's style is impeccable, as always. It's a bit on the shorter side, but fits into a whole with UK in Bad Way, building a new and entirely unmarketable Harvey-verse !

The art is the highlight of this comic. The story proper takes up only half of this issue. I wonder, why not developed more? But my biggest question here: Why the oversized format? What does that really bring to the table (other than a bigger showcase for the illustrations), or why was this needed for the comic?
