A Footnote in History

Based on an extended conversation with my son while he was studying for his GCSE history, discussing the history of medicine, as we walked across the Cotswolds one day. Individually, all of the events in here are factual, to the best of my knowledge, I've just woven them together.

This was a testing ground for a lot of the techniques that I'd like to use in the graphic novel I'll be improvising at LICAF in Kendal, October 18th this year. If you're attending the festival, do drop by on Saturday, and picture yourself in the place of the old bearded fellow on the bottom half of each page - and you too could become a footnote in comic-book history!
