A comic page of a medical resident examining, from top left to bottom right, a unicorn with a supposed peanut allergy, a Horned monster person with a possible hernia, two super heroes who got stuck together, a family whose little son is a werewolf, a grim reaper, and some gnomes with allergies.
The life of a medical resident in a fantasy city is especially hectic. But Ruth manages! Those gnomes are my favourite.
Find out more about Ruth in Passing in the Night!
