40 Of The Latest Comics That Capture The Whole Spectrum Of Modern Life Experiences Of Blobby And Friends

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.
