"weird art comics"

comic made to post on instagram (i hate that app!) drawn on post-its i stole from my day job.

the image on the third page is an edit of a B. Kliban cartoon that someone made on twitter, i think in 2020 or 2021. unfortunately i can’t find the information on who made this edit so if you know, let me know, i’d love to credit them.

i have been thinking about ways to make "small" comics or mini-projects that one can work on while life and day job and other things are happening. often on instagram i see diary comics and/or journal comics with very, very personal content getting a lot of attention. the interest and theme of this blog (vaguesteph) has been diary comics. i wanted to experiment with that format. i think it's funny that the post-its are square lol
