"Last year, he got our attention for his disturbingly brilliant graphic novel "Monsters." . . . Gabby Schulz has gone on to create a similarly unnerving web comic series titled Sick." "Flavorwire"The author of the perennial classic, "Monsters "(written as Ken Dahl), Gabby Schulz returns with a new graphic novel, "Sick," which "Hicksville "author Dylan Horrocks calls "a punch in the face and well worth reading." Like "Monsters," "Sick "focuses on health and social policy, this time expanding from the subject of STDs and their stigma to the larger, hot-button issue of national healthcare.Severely ill, uninsured, alone, and confined to his bed for weeks, Schulz was left searching only to find himself. "Sick "documents his discovery in gory, glorious, water-colored detail, finally completed and collected here for the first time in a beautiful, album-sized hardcover edition.Since "Monsters," Schulz has produced a host of online comics including "SEXISM," a viral sensation written up everywhere from the "Stranger "to "Scientific American." The web-serialized "Sick "was an Ignatz Award nominee for Outstanding Online Comic. His work has appeared on narrative.ly and BuzzFeed and in "Arthur "magazine.Gabby Schulz, sometimes known as Ken Dahl, grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii. His graphic novel, "Monsters "won two Ignatz Awards, was an Eisner Award nominee, and was a "Best American Comics "selection. His other works include the collection "Welcome to the Dahl House" and the web comic "Sick," an Ignatz Award nominee for Outstanding Online Comic. Schulz currently resides in Chicago, Illinois."
