Bored Panda reached out to Alvin again to learn more about his creative process, the role of humor in his work, and how his comics serve as both a personal and societal reflection. When asked about the unique power of comics, the artist shared that for "The Square Comics," it's the simplicity. "It's fun to condense ideas into 4-panel comics."

Alvin explained how humor helps tackle serious topics in comics: "I think it's important to be light-hearted when discussing something heavy. Personally, I find it helps take the tension away and create a safe space for a much more genuine exchange of views."

Alvin shared that he feels connected to all his comics, as they reflect his emotions in the moment. "One that I especially resonate with is about my dog who went missing a few years ago. We never found him, and drawing the comic helped with the grieving process."

As a fun extra, we asked Alvin what message he'd include in a comic strip for a time capsule for future generations. "I think I would create a comic about dealing with personal issues, to show that no matter the era, we all have unresolved issues."
