Abstract |
Medthics is an online graphic novel series comprising of six issues (http://www.medthics.com). What is often viewed as pop culture escapism, this “comic book” series tackles the complex world of medicine and its moral/ethical intricacies. From topics about physician identity formation to humane patient care, Medthics brings to the forefront subject matter essential to clinical practice. The art of medicine is depicted through stylized characters as they live their lives through a fictional world inspired by true events.
