This Moscow-based artist continues growing his fan base on social media platforms and now has over 1.4 million followers on Instagram alone. Gudim shared how it makes the artist feel that his account grows so rapidly.

“My comics are about what I see around me, about incidents from my life, about observations, and given that my life cannot be called "unusual", so I'm not surprised that many people face the same problems or situations. It's also very nice to see when you're not alone and when people around the world can feel the same way,” shared Gudim.

The artist consistently makes new comics and seems to never run out of ideas and energy. Gudim shared how many comics he creates on a weekly basis.

“A few years ago, I would have answered: about 2 comics a week, but now the situation is a little different. I have a second project (Yes, But (you could see it)), I still get commissions for commercial illustrations, and I also do some of my drawings in animation form (and since I have little to no animation skills, this process can take several days). Given all this, my answer would be almost every day. I draw something almost every day, I don't have clear days off, even during the holidays. I can draw something on the plane or in the hotel room. I can’t say that this rhythm is tiring because I feel that I can stop at any moment, but if I don’t draw for 1-2 days, I already want to draw again,” shared with his obsession comic artist Gudim.

Bullfighting goes beyond cruelty and cowardice. Just because it's wrapped up in a country's "culture" doesn't make it right and doesn't protect it. Slavery was once wrapped up in Africa's culture.

Gudim is very grateful for his fans all over the platforms. He also shared this message with the Pandas: “I hope that you will not be too critical of what I do. Although, perhaps, the Internet was created specifically for this. Comics/drawings/creativity is as much a part of our life as trees, sky, and birds, and I really like being inside it. All I want is to invite you to the world that I created, and maybe it will give you a little joy, distract you from problems, maybe make you think, or inspire you to some kind of your own creativity. Thank you for your time!”

It's not enough to love. Sometimes love needs to fight. NYC is becoming what it is today because those in charge stopped caring about their own citizens.

What are you talking about? This is when people queue up, but someone's mate is at the top of the line so they feel entitled to skip the line and go stand by their mate

The Spinal Association in the UK got these banned because of the harm they do (even at low speeds) to people with back/spine issues. I wish the rest of the world would follow suit.

What do you think ?

Every time I see these comics, I post the same thing. They all sound like they were written by a 12 year old who is going through an edgy phase of hating society. Ridiculous, trying to depict controversies that don't exist.

pelemele 7 months ago

There are perhaps one or two that are relevant, but for the rest I completely agree with you.

Except they're mostly not controversies, most of those are ironies. It's to make you giggle lightly.

I agree with some of them, but I think a lot of these are just trying to find the worst in everything.
