The phenomenon of best friends is hard to explain. Best friends are not bound by common sense commonalities, and they can be entirely different from each other, even opposite to one another. But that's what usually makes friendships so damn interesting. One of them might be a loudmouth, while the other is a bit more reserved; one of them could be very tall, the other short; one of them might be smart, and the other one, how do you say, not so smart.

Speaking of whom, this is exactly the friendship that Nerd and Jock enjoy. Yes, those are their names. But you'd be surprised how much character each of them has, and how well they get along. Don't believe us? See for yourself.

Without a doubt, these comics will definitely make you remember your own best friend, or evoke some great memories you shared with them. And sometimes these comics might even raise some good points about what a good friendship looks like. We've all been in a friendship that we thought was great, but they didn't turn out that great in the end, and more often than not, we don't notice how toxic some people are to us. Nerd and Jock are exactly the opposite, and they're all about being positive to one another.

Despite them being so different, Nerd and Jock actually admire each other's qualities and differences. Jock is constantly in awe of Nerd's intellect, and Nerd admires Jock's willpower and strength. It goes to show that no matter what they prefer, they still encourage each other and motivate one another to achieve their own kind of excellence. And sometimes, like most good friends do, they give each other some advice from their own perspective, enriching each other's worldview.

Belzebub! :) I love naming cats after demons. They like being recognized for what they are, too.

What's so special about these comics is that they have a double narrative structure. One of the narrative arcs can stretch through tens of episodes, while the other narrative, that of a classical comic, stays within the bounds of a strip. This type of structure doesn't lose its punch when it carries out a long story, but also doesn't reduce itself to triviality, and keeps the reader's interest on the topic for a long time.

If you now find yourself completely hooked on comics, Bored Panda has plenty more to offer to fulfill your craving. Everyone loves a comic that they can relate to, and I hope you will find this one at least "bearly relatable" (sorry for the lame joke). Comics are great, yes, but they take a lot of time. Yes, but these comics don't. And if you have a taste for darkness and dark humor especially, we offer you ToothyBJ (wink).

My son got me a shirt that says "Free Hugs" for Father's Day a couple of years ago. I love wearing it for one day at "nerd cons".
