Quirky And Dark Comics Featuring Twisted Endings By SpaceBoyCantLol (35 New Pics)

In a previous interview with Bored Panda, Mohit Srivastava, the Indian artist behind the username "SpaceboyCantLOL", revealed to us how his artistic journey began.

"My parents tell me that once I found a few comic books as a kid and I fell in love with them. So other kids my age were learning to read fairy tales and I was here, running around with my cousins’ graphic novels, just to look at pictures since the advanced English used in those didn’t make any sense to me."

"Growing up, I would just draw comics on every piece of empty paper that I could find in the house and even at the end of test papers in school. That way, I have attracted a lot of detention but I have no regrets. Currently, I am working as a creative lead in a US-based company. But my job is not entirely about comics so I keep the love for comics alive through my social media page," he said to Bored Panda.

With all of that being said, the artist also revealed to us that it was in fact his younger sister who urged him to create a comic page, and he yielded.

"I am an astrophile, so when I was creating my comic page, I wanted that side of me to come out. So I called it 'spaceboy can’t lol' because I thought spaceboy would represent me and I would draw comics about funny situations in my life where I am at the receiving end. I did that for some time but slowly realized that there’s much more that I want to do, like movie spoofs and dark humor. I now realize that my comic portfolio has turned out to be a mix of everything, with just a single filter—Filters don’t exist."

We also questioned Mohit about his creative process and the artists who have influenced him.

"Looking at other artists’ work inspires me. Sometimes a similar concept or idea is envisioned by different creators and it’s quite insightful to see how different members of the community represent that same idea, differently. A few pages that I love on Instagram are mrlovenstein, extrafabulous_comic, loading.artist, and war.and.peas. To this day, I don’t know how and where I get my ideas from. It’s like when I am not even trying, I get the funniest ideas but if I sit down specifically to ideate, I can’t think to save my life. My brain and I run on different schedules."
