It’s funny how the most dramatic things, when presented in the sweetest way, can take on an even stronger meaning. The presentation format can make people pay more attention to a specific matter. This is true for certain comics, like those created by Ryan Pagelow, known for his series ‘Buni Comic’. You may already be familiar with his work, but if you missed our previous posts featuring his earlier strips, you can still catch up on them now.

For those new to ‘Buni Comic,’ it can be described as cute with not-so-cute endings. The series often takes unexpected turns with its twisted endings, leaving readers surprised and sometimes even confused. The artist touches on topics that may seem irrelevant to many, yet resonate with all of us in some way. Scroll down to explore the most recent collection of strips created by Ryan and learn more about him and his work.

Ryan Pagelow shared insights into his journey as a cartoonist: “I’ve drawn comics for most of my life and started out by drawing a comic strip, which appeared in university newspapers. I then started freelancing for Mad magazine. I created Buni in 2009, and since then, it has been featured on GoComics and Webtoon.”

We were curious about how the artist comes up with all the interesting ideas for his new strips. The creator of ‘Buni Comic’ said: “I get my ideas from just sitting down and thinking for about 30 minutes every day. I try to imagine if everyday objects had feelings, what would motivate them? What would make them happy, sad, jealous, angry, love...”

When asked about his motivation to keep creating new comics, the artist answered: “I’m motivated by the desire to make an even funnier comic next time. It’s like an endless chase to find the perfect comic, which probably doesn’t exist. Also, I have enjoyed comics since before I could read. And I’ll probably continue to enjoy visual storytelling until I die. In that sense, comics will be a part of my life forever.”

He also added: “Mostly, I just want to give people a couple of seconds of happiness. If it brightens their day, I’m happy. I also hope that they learn to stay optimistic despite this dark world.”

Lastly, Pagelow kindly shared his advice for all aspiring artists looking to make their mark in the comic industry: “I usually tell people who are interested in comics to just start creating comics now. Because everybody has 100,000 bad drawings in them, so the quicker they get them out of the way, the better their comics will be. You get better with each drawing. The same applies to writing. The more you write, the more you’ll find your voice and your unique style of humor. Take risks. Be weird. Make what you actually think is funny and not what you think other people will think is funny.”

The first time I took CPR training I broke the dummy's chin. There was some good-natured teasing as to whether I passed.

Also would work for "like and subscribe" at the end of the stick if you can figure out how to depict them.

It's not a properly roasted marshmallow if it's not black, but that's just my opinion.
