#1 The Extrovert Hangover
This comic nails the universal regret of suddenly deciding you’re “fun social butterfly mode” — and then waking up to 100 new messages. Dark humor meets pure introvert dread.
#2 The Sweaty Goblin’s Plea
The self-deprecating “sweaty goblin” persona begging for Patreon support only to spend it on the luxury of food and shelter? Brutal honesty wrapped in absurdity.

One tree compares itself to a bigger tree, but in the end, the bird just loves them both. A hilarious yet strangely wholesome commentary on comparison and self-worth.

A dad’s meltdown over his son’s “improper” cap-wearing turns into a declaration that society is doomed. Classic overreaction humor with a dark societal wink.
#5 Frog & Turtle Support Group
This one is cute… until it isn’t. Promising to “be there” while admitting you’ll make things worse is peak funny dark humor wrapped in friendship goals.

The moment a robot is given humanity, its first gift is… crushing anxiety. A painfully accurate (and hilarious) metaphor for being human.

Ever try fixing a tiny mistake only to make it worse? This comic captures the spiral — both hilarious and low-key tragic.

“Fine” at the table while snapping a tortilla chip = chef’s kiss. This comic hits way too close to home for anyone holding back tears in public.
#9 Shooting Star Lies
The cosmic lie of “nothing is impossible” gets instantly crushed by reality. Short, sharp, and hilariously cruel.
#10 The Freak Flag Fails
When your version of “freak flag” is going barefoot on planes… yeah, even the weirdos don’t want that. Dark humor in social rejection at its finest.
#11 The Clown Without a Heart
Why do clowns honk their noses? To pump blood because they have no hearts. Disturbing? Absolutely. Funny? Way too much.
#12 The Party Regret
That sinking dread when you accidentally commit to a social event. The final panel’s meltdown screams dark humor gold.
#13 The Hard Stuff
Forget drugs — the most dangerous addiction here is external validation. A clever, satirical jab at our dopamine-driven culture.
#14 Life Account Setup
Being born in this world is tough — but imagine needing an email for two-factor authentication just to exist. Too real, too funny.
#15 Emotional Support Dog
Not only does the dog sense depression, but he’s also so good at his job it’s scary. Wholesome and darkly hilarious in one punch.
#16 Dinner for the Dark Lord
Skip the goat sacrifice — the Grim Reaper just wants macaroni with chicken strips. A deliciously funny subversion of evil tropes.

A comic where a character realizes they are the placebo. A gut-punch of identity crisis humor you can’t help but laugh at.

Work hard. Believe in yourself. Oh, and have rich parents. Brutal, hilarious, and probably the most honest career advice ever.
#19 The Burger Too Tall
When your burger is taller than your head, the only solution? Unhinge your jaw like a snake. Ridiculous and brilliantly gross.
