Sid & the Sickos is Mild Pain's first self-published long-format comic.

This 90-page story was drawn and released online in 2020 before being printed in 2021. The shiny new edition is standard comic size and has some noticeable changes compared to the original run.

“[The characters are] spooky things who just wanna play music and hang — There are some tangled romances, skeleton sex scenes, drug use, pandemic boredom, and the usual shenanigans from twenty-something alternative types living in the city. The artwork is nice and all the characters are kinda cute. They somehow seem even cuter when they’re wearing face coverings. Kacen does a great job shading with a couple of solid pen strokes. It’s a good style. This is definitely worth picking up. I’ll be snagging the second collection, whenever that happens.” –Rick V. (Razorcake Zine)
