40 Of The Latest Comics That Capture The Whole Spectrum Of Modern Life Experiences Of Blobby And Friends
Friendship is one of the most beautiful things in life. Everybody deserves and even needs a friend. Especially if that friend is like Blobby the Blob Fish, who, as one of the creators has put it, is "the magical best friend you always wished you had".
Friends provide a comfortable oasis for all of the bad things that constantly happen in our lives. From little disappointments right down to injustice, there's plenty of unjust stuff going on, and it's important that somebody should share it, especially if it's done between friends, in a safe environment. There is such a hospitable environment, and there are social issues being constantly brought up in the friend circle of Blobby & Friends, a comic that masterfully ties these two things together.

Don't know about you, but didn't you notice how detailed the visual style is, how well-drawn and fleshed out the graphics and the characters are? Well, a whole team is working behind each and every comic, and this collective collaboration really shows, considering the output and the quality of each individual panel and the comic strip in general. In a sense, these collective hours of hard work have paid off, and they bask in the glory of over half a million followers on Instagram, which is A LOT by any standards. And the fact that this project has worked so well is really awesome! "To be honest, we didn't expect things to go the way they did and I am full of love and gratitude towards our audience."

As you noticed, Blobby is the glue (or the blob) that holds the team together, but other characters also deserve to be mentioned. "[Other folks] who appear in the comics are Lily, their human friend (and I really relate to her character a lot, I'm not sure why), Ashley, who is Lily's crush, and Charlie / Punk Kid who can come off as intimidating but is really the most soft and wholesome character we've ever come up with. That's why Charlie is modeling our underwear," Zack said, laughing.
In the previous post, Zack, one of the authors of the comic, has given an interview explaining the mysterious circumstances of the comic's origin and how they're doing as of right now. "I don't know if there's one thing that inspired me to start the comics in the way that it exists today. We actually started with something really simple, with funny and cute gags that were more at the surface level. As the account grew, we realized we had an opportunity to use Blobby to speak up about more serious topics," Zack explained. "Listening to the reactions from our followers also made a huge difference for us. I can speak only for myself but I really feel like I’ve personally grown with this world we've created."
Blobby and friends have blessed us with their wholesome presence here at Bored Panda before, and if you're hooked and want to see more of this comic goodness, check it out here. If you want to take a detour from these comics and jump on to the next one, here's something that we've recently posted. Perhaps you want to educate yourself more about certain life struggles from a feminist perspective; if so, we have just the thing to offer, namely Promptly Paneled comics. And while some people struggle in life due to systemic injustice, some people that inspired this comic just struggle at life in general. And here's an awkward and out-of-the-blue suggestion: take a look at these comics that explore the same awkwardness that this sentence just caused.

My mum never let me have my hair cut how I want it. I always had to push the boundaries and ended up getting 20's bob haircuts. One time mum wasn't paying much attention and I got it cut how I liked. Now it's stuck how I like it because I can't grow it out without getting a mullet (mum hates mullets so it's gotta be short).

I saw a great, accurate quote about this concept: "Those people who, in 1957, tried to prevent a little Black girl from going to school due to her race are the same people who, in 2022, are trying to prevent their grandchildren from learning that they, in 1957, tried to prevent a little Black girl from going to school due to her race". SMH.

Why do they want to ban those books? Children do in fact face racism at an early age?
Aria Whitaker 3 years ago
Here in the US conservatives are trying to ban anything that "indoctrinates" white children to feel "guilty" or "uncomfortable" about the horrible things done in the past. They don't seem to give a c**p about the accuracy of it, or that Black and other minority children deserve to learn about it, too. It is so frustrating and getting out of control. They will start holding 15th-century style book burnings soon...smh.

Maus is violent...Persepolis has s*x in it, Anne's Diary talks about mast*rbation, Dracula has blood in it, King Salomon's Mines have a gruesome death, Tintin shots guns and Asterix punches people...so let's stop reading altogether -_____________-

And the Bible has all of that plus rape, genocide, mass murder, torture, slavery, etc. white evangelists are perfectly fine with forcing THAT book on underaged students.

Yes, we need to teach children the truth about our history. Don't ban a MATH book because it mentions Maya Angelou, a black poet in it.

Fear mongering to suppress the masses and keep them in line with: murder, mayhem, genocide, slavery, incest, racism, cruelty, wars, homophobia, spouse and child abuse, religious persecution...yep, all in one convenient book

Solution! Expose your kids to lots of culture. Then it's not shocking. Specifically the food. Everyone can unite behind food. Food is delicious.

It's like the idiots that act as if being straight has nothing to with sexuality when whining that saying being gay is inappropriate around children because it's "sexual" in nature.

Yeah....It’s a big topic to tackle. But if you still wanna be an ally to people of color, then you can’t shy away from it. The elephant will always be in the room until you address it properly. And you might as well grow up and face the fact that ignorance is not ending racism anytime soon.

I saw this YouTube ad from that page called PragerU, it was an ad about how "Kids are being filled with lies about how America is racist, so you should instead turn your kids to PragerU. We can teach them the truth and make them want to strive to be as great as people like George Washington even though the mf owned slaves." look up PragerU Kids, you'd think it's satire, but too many people are claiming how serious those guys are being.

There should be more videos about systemic racism because parents can't ban videos, the teachers show it to the kids and they can't un-show it 🤷♀️ While reading a book takes time.

It's a difficult topic to debate on. On one hand it's American history and we should know about it, counter point is that some people have taken CRT to a whole other level where some kids come home saying that the world is messed up because they're born white. I think it should be taught but don't pin the blame game on kids who have nothing to do with the past or play mental gymnastics with their parents.

Except that critical race theory teaches racism. The other two panels do not.
