Chronic Fatigue Superhero
Book •
Chronic Fatigue Superhero is a comic collection by Michael Towers that uses humour and simple cartoons to explore the daily realities of living with chronic fatigue and post‑viral illness.
Drawing on the author's own long experience of fluctuating severe symptoms, the book balances comedy with empathy to create an in‑group humour that resonates with sufferers and informs outsiders.
The work originated as an Instagram series and was compiled and digitally redrawn for print after years of intermittent production during periods of severe illness.
It highlights themes of resilience, community support, and the small creative acts that help sustain people through debilitating conditions.
The book has also served as advocacy, helping raise awareness and connecting readers across a wide, international community.
