Description
“Brilliant . . . It’ll make you think twice before putting your body on an operating table, no matter how much you trust your doctor.” —Comics Beat
Beyond excess, beyond ethics, beyond science. . . . Enter a terrifying new experiment in pain from Eisner Award nominee Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Basilisk), 2023 Reuben Award Finalist illustrator Jesús Hervás (The Empty Man,) and Federico Sabbatini (Moon Knight)!
Dr. Carrie Reynolds was a veteran trauma surgeon with a godlike mastery of muscle and bone. But outside the operating room, her rigidly ordered life spiraled into chaos when her daughter, Heather-a recovering plastic surgery addict-suddenly disappeared, only to mysteriously reemerge in a catatonic state, her vocal cords removed . . . the latest in a series of victims scarred by a battery of brazenly cruel medical procedures that have baffled police and left an alarming number of once-ordinary citizens maimed, mutilated, or dead on arrival.
Deep beneath the streets of Carrie's city, a new kind of underground hospital has just opened its doors . . . and, once inside, there are no rules, no oaths, and no taboos too deep to not to be broken. Together, a new class of surgeon has sworn to pierce the final threshold of accepted medical orthodoxy one incision at a time. The scalpel is their tool. The alleys are their operating theater. Murder is their medicine. And only Carrie can stop what they're planning next . . .

Invasive is going to ruin your appetite!
Invasive taps into a disgusting and terrifying part of the world. Surgery and those addicted to cosmetic surgery. This horror graphic novel took my brain to some terrifying places and I found myself having to put this story down from time to time so I could get the images out of my head.
Cullen Bunn has done it again by crafting another horrifying adventure that readers are going to love! And the ending is one that readers won’t see coming!

Invasive is an incredibly gruesome and gory graphic novel with incredible art work and a gripping, twisted storyline. I personally really enjoyed this one and will be keeping an eye out for anymore to come in this series!

Dr. Carrie Reynolds, a master trauma surgeon, faces a nightmare when her daughter, Heather, is found catatonic with her vocal cords removed—one of many victims of gruesome underground surgeries. Beneath the city, a rogue group of surgeons defies medical ethics, turning alleys into operating rooms and murder into medicine. As the body count rises, Carrie is the only one who can stop them.
Packed with blood and gore, this novel isn't for the faint-hearted. I absolutely loved its storyline, illustrations and attention to detail, and give it 5 stars.
Special thanks to the author and the publisher for the ARC.

This was a great gory body horror graphic novel.
This is a collection of all four sections that make up the full story, which wraps up nicely, I am not a fan of stories that end on a cliff hanger.
The Artwork was outstanding, gritty and gory, and fitted the story perfectly.
The story was excellent and hard to put down, interesting characters, and with a good flow.
This is the first book by Cullen Bunn I've read, and I loved it, so now I have to see what else he has done that I can find.
If you like a good mad doctor, body horror Graphic novel, then you will love this.

A great new addition to horror comics! Medical horror is such a fun subset of body horror and I can't think of many comics that explore it. The horror is delightfully grotesque and I love the art style used here. The color red pops so much and I love how it was used for the blood and the eyes of the suits. It feels like a companion to the movie "American Mary" and it's such a fun time. Definitely would reccomend.

I'm 100% a Cullen Bunn fan. The story was great. The entire story gave me Repo! The Genetic Opera vibes - folks addicted to surgery that will do anything to get it? Folks that let elective cosmetic procedures completely destroy their outward appearance? A journey through to the grotesque? Yes, please! The art work was great as well. Good stuff all around.
