A genre-splicing collaboration between a neuroscientist and a comics artist (who also happens to study neuroscience) about the way our brains work.

Welcome to Neurocomic, a visually captivating adventure through the brain. Neurocomic is populated by quirky creatures, bizarre landscapes, and famous neuroscientists. Our nameless protagonist evades vindictive colossal squid, negotiates mysterious trap doors, battles Boschean narcotic demons, and navigates forests of neurons to take you on a rapturous journey through the most complex organic structure in the universe.

Neurocomic makes a baffling, mysterious subject approachable for the layman, but it's also a wonderful object in its own right, one that cries out to be picked up and read. Produced in association with the Wellcome Trust, the largest medical charity in the world, Neurocomic is a wonderful introduction to the complexities of the brain.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Neurocomic is praised as an engaging exploration of the brain's intricacies, presented through surreal and accessible illustrations. Lauded for its ability to simplify complex neuroscience topics, it's ideal for beginners intrigued by the brain's workings. The collaboration between Dr. Hana Roš and Dr. Matteo Farinella, backed by the Wellcome Trust, provides a delightful journey through perception, memory, and consciousness.
