A black and white comic about a stranded astronaut walking back to base, and his suit's nano bots are doing everything necessary to keep him alive while it keeps walking him, day and night, toward their goal. Even disassembling his limbs and torso to turn them into water, nutrients, and fuel to keep everything else running.
It's been living rent free in my head for a couple years now.
The Suit, for anyone curious.
Thank you. And thanks for linking to it and not posting as an image.
That reminds me slightly of the game SOMA
Any idea where to find that?

I honestly thought the visuals would have been much more...graphical.
Nevertheless, an intriguing read!
Oh I remember that! Such a neat little story.
Thanks!
There's a sci-fi novel from the 50s where a dude is severely injured, so his robot freezes him until they can get back to proper medical facilities. But the robot is also heavily damaged, so it steals a bunch of "parts" (mostly limbs) from the frozen body to make itself functional enough to make the trip... (Stefan Wul - Rayons pour Sidar)
