A comic-strip with no name

You have to admit it, most webcomics and traditional comics are so interchangeable and repetitive. I don't longer read them for years, by be within an artform that have big pains to struggle in sales with Mangas that turns mainstream and also the rage of the streaming platforms. However, you need to dig deeper for seek a comic that work, and by the way, that knows to be consistant and more importantly, to drawn it right. Instagrammer CassandraComics had created a series of strips featuring an average twenty-something girl who struggled with humor of the tribulations of adulthood on the modern-day era.

If it's not that funny at all, I can claims that her comic style and humor are clever, such of a quality that lacks too many titles nowadays. It came from an authentical observation of life than something that exists only in cartoons. And people love it for that. They reasonate perfectly with this girl-lead and its angsts. (Is she suppose to look like her maker?)


This is the kind of comic that made sense to anyone who was born or involved in the long, harshing 21th century. Her comic style is not one that are filled with cute Furry faces from DeviantArt, Europpean's Mickey Mouse-style or the look of a rampant saturday morning TV cartoon. This is what made her a true artist. Her sense of life-observation is done by a humor that is not juvenile, neither gross. It's only accurate of the life of every people I've could met. 

Too many comics series seems to made the characters girls at jerks or worst, at assholes stereotypes who look of someone from a social media avatar than a real-life person-- like the very godawful Elles that results at what will be the 21th century's Daffy Asshole from the Daffy-Speedy cartoons of old. The fact that her comic strip have none titles-in made that the most inventive.

It's such a shame that her Instagram account is almost empty, but apparently, it's the fear to see her works be stolen or be took without her own permission. This is the biggest disadvantage to share your works on social media like Instagram, and with a today Meta that pretend that everything we placed there have to be to their intellectual property. We worked hard for weeks and nights for giving our art such of a establishing impact and reasonating with an audience that drawn sick of the same mold of Western/Anime bland caricatures.
