“Brilliant . . . It’ll make you think twice before putting your body on an operating table, no matter how much you trust your doctor.” —Comics Beat Dr. Carrie Reynolds was a veteran trauma surgeon with a godlike mastery of muscle and bone. But outside the operating room, her rigidly ordered life spiraled into chaos when her daughter, Heather-a recovering plastic surgery addict-suddenly disappeared, only to mysteriously reemerge in a catatonic state, her vocal cords removed . . . the latest in a series of victims scarred by a battery of brazenly cruel medical procedures that have baffled police and left an alarming number of once-ordinary citizens maimed, mutilated, or dead on arrival. Deep beneath the streets of Carrie's city, a new kind of underground hospital has just opened its doors . . . and, once inside, there are no rules, no oaths, and no taboos too deep to not to be broken. Together, a new class of surgeon has sworn to pierce the final threshold of accepted medical orthodoxy one incision at a time. The scalpel is their tool. The alleys are their operating theater. Murder is their medicine. And only Carrie can stop what they're planning next . . . Collecting Invasive #1-4.

I don't know why, but I really love plastic surgery themes in horror. It's probably related to my own general fear of medical procedures and the idea of someone having nefarious intentions with another person's body, but it always gets to me! I really enjoyed most of this, though I knocked a star off for the ending. While it didn't surprise me or feel particularly out of place, it felt very rushed and I think another page or two would've gone a long way in tying up the loose ends.
