We reached out to the artist behind the comic series and asked about their work. First, we were interested in what inspired them to create comics. We learned that: “I just want to share my ideas to others. Having a platform like Instagram allows my humor to reach a broader audience and connect with people who appreciate and enjoy the comedic elements of my comics.”

The ‘Drowsy Lines Comics’ author gave us a glimpse into their creative process: “In my case, coming up with an idea on a specific sketch is just a spontaneous process. I just went on with my daily life, my usual everyday routine. Every time I encountered a random scenario and realized that it had the potential to be translated into a comic sketch, I would just write it down in my notes and draw the comics when I got home.”

When asked about the recurring themes in the series, the cartoonist shared with us: “As much as possible, I want the working class to relate to my comics. Relatability, I think, is also a comedic element that has a significant impact on a sketch. For the art style, I always try to keep it simple cause I believe the minimal reactions of the characters will bring more humor to a sketch. And also, as the name of the page suggests, I draw my comics before bedtime.”

Lastly, the artist shared who inspires them in the world of comics and comedy: “There is a lot. On top of my mind when it comes to writing clean material, I look up to stand-up comedian Jim Gaffigan.”
