Thinking about these comics that I made for my previous band Super Duper Club. I had remembered how much I liked afex aventurs growing up and I thought I should give the whole poorly drawn webcomic thing a go as a quick promo thing. As is the case with any of these types of projects I got super carried away and spent too much time on these and decided to quit after like 5.

I really cherish them though and want an excuse to make something like these again. I rarely feel comfortable making much art that I consider "internet-y" or that properly reflects on the millions of net-art and shitpost adjacent images that I've been exposed to in my short lifetime. It's a mindset to artmaking that I'm so familiar with and enjoy engaging with as a viewer but I equally feel like an outsider to it, that my skill set translates better to a more traditional practice.

It's good to see that it's totally do-able though, that this style is approachable by design, that you can just make funny stupid drawings that wind up being nice to look at in a weird way.
