Paranoid Gardens is brought to you by writers Gerard Way (The Umbrella Academy) and Shaun Simon (The Fabulous Killjoys), alongside illustrator Chris Weston (The Filth), colourist Dave Stewart (Hellboy), and letterer Nate Piekos (Black Hammer). They present an all-new surreal comic book experience that's ER meets Dr. Who...on acid.

Loo is a nurse at the most bizarre care-centre around. The staff are not entirely human, and the cases are downright unearthly. Aliens, ghosts, superheroes, and more creatures plague its hallways as both doctors and patients. The hospital itself seems to be somewhat self-aware.

Loo believes that despite a recent failure at her job, she's been given some sort of higher calling in this mysterious place and decides to rise to the challenge. Along the way, she must fight through corrupt staff members, powerful theme park cults, and her own personal demons and trauma to meet this challenge and discover what secrets the gardens hold.

Collects issues #1-#6 of Paranoid Gardens.
