Great read, thanks for bringing it to my attention! It has this interesting blend of titillating and insightful. Now that I think of it, that's the standard addiction-memoir formula, but it's interesting to see it as an illustrated narrative. The ending is a bit too tidy and abrupt for my taste, but that might have more to do with the comic book format/presentation.
