Hey! I'm Marcel from Berlin, Germany. 29 years old (let's just not tell anybody that I'll turn 30 in just a couple of days, ok?).
For a big part of my life, I thought I should become an illustrator. I even studied illustration for less than a semester at some point. I quickly discovered that there's a big difference between doing something for fun and doing the same thing with the goal of it being a job. That made me stop drawing for a couple of years.
My urge to tell little stories never really went away so I recently started drawing again. Just for fun. I don't want it to be my job. It's not even supposed to make money in any form. I just want people to see my stuff and blow air out of their nose. A chuckle would be great but no pressure.
Not having any serious goals and just looking at this as a relaxing hobby gives me the freedom to not really have a concept for what I'm doing. There's just one thing I try to achieve: Post something new every day. That can be a silly pun, an actually decent joke, or a commentary on the latest episode of some TV series everyone is angry about.
My process of creating these comics is very low maintenance as well. Using my iPad Pro and Procreate, I just sit on my couch – enjoying time away from my desk – and alternate between rubbing my cat Gigabyte's belly and drawing.
Drawing is just a hobby for me and I love that I'm at a place where I don't want it to change into anything else.

I actually love reading, like actual books not eBooks or what-not. I'm 16. I can guarantee we are on our phones for a good amount of the day but at the same time most of us can survive without them for 10-12 hours a day, but I do agree, it can be sad in some cases where they can't be separated from their phones.

k but on a real note , if things like this happen to you frequently see your doc! I ignored symptoms for month and turns out I had a super rare brain disease, I had to fly across the country for emergency surgery and was told I would have had a massive stroke by the end of that year (this was in September) .
Try taking your kids with you and once in two months will make you broke!

So that's where this is from. I was so confused. You and I (and my husband) must be the only people ever who've never watched GoT.
Load More Replies...Thank you so much for explaining the joke, my brain went off in an offensive direction and I couldn't figure out why the scenario was funny.
Load More Replies...Can't agree more. If i dont have a purpose to go out walks just feel weird lol

Nah. Squeeze them in life's eyes and steal life's identity. You are now life and can reign suffering on all your enemies.

Too bad the "results" arrow is going to beat your a*s in about 5 minutes

Only when it's school book. If it's a book I WANT to read, the opposite is true.
I once read 400 pages of a Harry Potter book in 3 hours and I'll never know how i did it but however when it's required reading it takes me 5 days to read 20 pages
Just finished my last semester of grad school. My one actual class (the others were Practicum and Thesis) had a 5 page book review due two weeks before the end of the semester. We had 12 weeks to read a 150 page book. I dutifully started a month in advance, reading 30 pages. Then nothing until the day before when I skimmed the rest of the book, then wrote 8 pages on the main points. Got an A, but really was not very inspired to write after finishing a 191 page thesis.

Hilarious, I love it. Please keep on drawing. I would like to see much more of your comics.
