Artist Creates Humorous Comics That Retail Workers And Regular People Will Probably Relate To (30 New Pics)
Interview With ArtistThey say "take your broken heart and make it into art." In Stephen Beals' case, it is more turning negative emotions into humorous comics. Yes, you've heard it right, "Adult Children" is back on Bored Panda!
Stephen Beals is an artist who has been drawing comics since forever "out of pure love for the art form." As Stephen said himself, his illustrations are something he made after work to let off steam. He titled them "Adult Children" because, according to the artist, "adulthood seems to be a myth we tell children in order to get them to behave."
The comics feature everyday life situations working in the retail sector. Even though the little fragments of working life are presented in a humorous way, we believe that most of us can hear the characters silently screaming out of helplessness and exhaustion. At the same time, the illustrations are very relatable.
The artist was thrilled to have his comics featured on Bored Panda since he's always been a fan. "I can only peek with one eye open at a post about my work. I'll try to be brave. I might use both eyes to look. We shall see, we shall see..."

That sounded like a prison sentence. Probably feels like it too.
a book is always a good idea, imagine being able to offer a new world
My husband is a long haul trucker. We have a supply/logistics issue and for whatever reasons the powers that be, have him haul SO MUCH CHOCOLATE. Most of his loads are candy. I tell myself the workers are fighting for better wages, but CANDY?! Good grief. This world makes no sense.
Is everything 14.63? Wasn't the one up there with the guy who wanted the bathroom and she was asleep also 14.63?
I made something like this. Like a survey with half our staff. Summed it up. Forwarded to management. And what did they do? Listen to this other guy who had an idea with no evidence or reason that anyone wanted that... Plus ignored all complaints or ideas for improvement... It didn’t take much longer before I quit
