I’m going to post about some of the web comics I’ve been
reading lately because I have nothing else to post about and this is more
positive than me ranting about how people are ignoring racism.
Sarah’s Scribbles by Sarah Andersen
A woman’s observations on being an awkward introverted
worrier. I…identify with her A LOT. Her second book just came out and I’m
hoping to pick it up soon.
Poorly Drawn Lines by Reza
Farazmand
Various random jokes. The most popular recurring characters
are the bear Ernesto and his friend Kevin the bird, as well as Trash Bird, who
is just Trash Bird. Look, it’s really hard to explain and totally ridiculous.
Just check it out.
Apparently the creator just wanted to use the longest name
she could find. In any case, she’s hilarious. Her creature “selfie bee” is a
kind of author avatar that reflects her often ridiculous reactions (like
promising not to buy more books and then leaving the bookstore later wearing a
sash that says “Mayor of Failuretown”). Also, for Harry Potter fans, she does
tons of spoofs of the series, especially of Dumbledore being just the worst
person to be in charge of children.
Books of Adam by Adam Ellis
Things that happen to Adam totally overdramatized,
flamboyant, and hilarious. I think my favorite is the one where the cat is
asleep all day, until three a.m. when he’s going totally crazy. It’s very
relatable.
The Pigeon Gazette by
Jane
Another comic where the typical things that happen to the
creator are exaggerated to hilarious levels. I think that might be my favorite
type of comic. The best ones to check out is the comics she drew while staying
up for thirty two hours in order to fix her sleep schedule. It’s basically a
decent into madness.
Anyway, that’s what I read all day. I like comics. What
about you?
