The concept of Medical Tales Retold came up in collaboration with Tapastic. These stories are about illnesses and injuries and can be sent in by doctors or patients. Medical Tales Retold įor Medical Tales Retold, Seluk draws comics about unusual or touching stories he gets through his email. In November 2015, Seluk published a collection of Heart and Brain comics in a book. The characters were metaphorically inspired by the concept of Id, Ego and Superego, represented by the heart, Lars, and the brain respectively. Seluk's degree in psychology benefited him in reinforcing these aspects. The characters of Heart and Brain are considered very relatable, as they cover well-known dichotomies such as introversion and extroversion, and logic and emotion. Lindsey Holmes described Heart and Brain as "the internal tennis match we often face between our romantic hearts and our realistic brains." Other characters include Tongue, who is often hedonistic and manipulative Stomach, who is often sensitive and other organ characters. While the heart skips to emotional need, the brain brings in reason and logic for why the heart's action are ill-advised. In the webcomic, the heart follows its feelings and emotions, chasing down butterflies and getting excited about kittens, while the brain is concerned about adult responsibility. Heart and Brain features Lars' anthropomorphized heart and brain as the two main characters. Seluk has also created various spin-off comics on the website of The Awkward Yeti. Lars is a socially awkward yeti, trying to get by in day-to-day life. As Seluk started to get attached to the character, he began creating more adult-oriented comics strips about Lars and uploading them on the Internet in September 2012. The Awkward Yeti, featuring Lars, was originally self-published as a children's book in 2012. He lives in Novi, Michigan, with three children. Until 2014, Seluk worked as a senior graphic designer, a job he left in December to do webcomics full-time. Nick Seluk graduated from Northville High School and earned a Bachelor's degree in psychology from Central Michigan University. These are Heart and Brain, a webcomic following the daily lives of an anthropomorphic heart and brain, and Medical Tales Retold, which repurposes real medical stories into comedic or touching comics. Seluk has started a few spin-off comics on the website of The Awkward Yeti. Seluk posts The Awkward Yeti comics on his personal website, as well as on Tapas. Starting in 2012, the comic follows the daily life of the blue yeti Lars. The Awkward Yeti is an ongoing gag-a-day webcomic by Nick Seluk.
