Tripped out loser boy returns to the womb to find only greater trauma in the form of an eternal return of ejection/projection.

Set in a world where drugs are easily available, Kabu, the protagonist goes on a ‘trip’ as he takes a journey in search for his next hit.
The drawing style is so fine, detailed, visually appealing (dare I say, disturbing?) and well done. The whole concept of addiction through the lens of an addict and his world while being on the borderline of reality and hallucination is depicted carefully. I especially enjoy when they mix sci fi with psychological trauma so this is a treat for me.

Genre: Thriller, Psychological thriller, Substance abuse, Sci Fi, Crime
