30 Comedy-Filled Comics By Nick Cabana

Bored Panda reached out to Nick to learn more about his creative work. When asked to describe his comics in three words, the artist chose: “conversational, realistic, and silly.” He then went on to share what first inspired him to start making comics: “I knew I wanted to do something artistic to express myself and my views on the world. I tried illustration but wasn't satisfied—moved towards serious animation but still felt like it wasn't what I wanted. I knew I was circling something important. One day, I made a comedic animated video and knew that I had found what I was looking for. Comedy was always very important to me, but for some reason, I never thought I would be able to incorporate it into art in a meaningful way.”

Cabana shared how he usually comes up with ideas for his new works, explaining that he finds inspiration in everyday moments: “Almost all of my video ideas come from bits my roommates and I do around the apartment. We spend a lot of time making each other laugh, and when something is very funny to us, I try to capture that feeling in a video. It feels fulfilling to me to capture elements of my real life in my content.”

When asked about other artists he finds inspiring and whose style he admires, Nick responded: “There are tons of creators I find to be brilliant. Lately, I have been endlessly impressed by the storytelling of Joe Bennett with his two shows ‘Scavengers Reign’ and ‘Common Side Effects.’ He captures small human details in a way I've never seen.”

Lastly, Cabana shared one of his favorite works he’s created so far: “I often enjoy the process of making my videos, especially my ‘Looking for Love’ series. But after a video is finished, I usually hate it because I think I can do better. This is something I’m working on—lol.”
