Modern Medical Romances

A single, self-contained issue from 1972, Modern Medical Romances was published by the short-lived San Francisco Comic Book Company. Writer and artist Leslie Cabarga crafted this unusual hybrid, blending the clinical detail of medical illustration with the heightened emotions of romance comics. It stands as a curious, one-off artifact of the early 1970s underground comix scene, showcasing Cabarga's distinctive and meticulous style.
