- Graphic stories, or adult themed comics, are a popular new cultural trend. Here, Green and Myers argue that they are also a valuable tool for medicine. Some healthcare professionals--especially those working in public health, with young people, or with non-native speakers--have begun to use graphic stories for patient care and education. One reason this practice is not more widespread is probably because most doctors have not considered its merits. However, Green and Myers believe that graphic stories have an important role in patient care, medical education, and the social critique of the medical profession.
