Bored Panda got in touch with Alex again to find out more about how he comes up with his ideas and to learn about his background. Alex shared that he's been into comics since he was a kid. "When I was little, I tried making my own comics, but I usually gave up after a few panels. I guess I had a short attention span. I liked 2000 AD and Dark Horse comics back then. But when I started freelancing in illustration, I wanted to get into animation. So, I started planning out my ideas, and that naturally got me back into enjoying making comics. Seeing the work of people like Joan Cornella inspired me to focus on webcomics and storytelling."

Alex mentioned that finding inspiration is one of the toughest parts for him, especially generating more ideas. "I've discovered different methods to keep my creative spark alive. Random word generators can prompt ideas, and free sketching until an idea forms has been helpful. It's important to change methods to avoid getting stuck; keeping things fresh loosens the brain. Personally, I've noticed that thinking of ideas really late at night or early in the morning tends to work better for me. There's some logic to it – when you're more alert, the cynical part of the brain is active, making you more likely to dismiss your own ideas."
When talking about his favorite artist, Alex revealed that his all-time favorite is Robert Crumb. "His work played a pivotal role in setting me on the path of illustration and art. Recently, I've also discovered the work of Tori Miki, also known as Mickey Bird. I highly recommend checking out his comics; they're absurd, surreal, and very clever."

Lobster is having a dream of itself as powerful and victorious. The delusion breaks and it is revealed to be the dissociative escape of a lobster who is trapped in a murky cage, watching people eat the horribly dismantled corpses of his friends. This is a fantasy born of profound trauma, not revenge.

Reminds me of a poem about sharks I made up in 4th grade and narrated to mashing on my battery-powered keyboard.

The mailman delivered a package. The monster heard something and ran out with cookies, hoping to find the love of her life she had only dreamed of. But it was just a package.
