Within the past few years, a British artist has captured the hearts of the Internet with his web comic series titled Safely Endangered. As of now, Chris McCoy’s Instagram page is followed by 1.6 million people, while his Facebook page has 480,000 followers, so it’s safe to say that McCoy’s audience enjoys his witty comics that depict cute characters doing strange things. You can learn more about him by reading this blog till the end.
He himself got a degree in engineering, but it did not take him long to realize that it was not for him. Later on, after leaving school, he started developing comics as a pastime, and probable inherent darwing skills developed throughout his childhood and drawing years. The encouragement he got from the people on the internet prompted him to continue with production and develop his brand of comedy.
What makes Safely Endangered so funny and original is that many creatures are cute, but on the other hand, they are endangered for a bad reason. McCoy’s simple illustrations involve round and happy-looking characters that look very attractive. However, the meaningful dialog and situations here twist into dark comedy, which provides clever punchlines. You can better understand his comics by keeping scrolling.

As McCoy stated, it means that the humor is derived from a rather dark or evil mode or regime, but it is still humor. For instance, one of the comics depicts a smiling character thinking to itself. As for comedy delivery, McCoy mostly depends on images instead of writing lengthy descriptions. Because he is an excellent speaker for the part, even with little dialog, he is able to express feelings and emotions quite well.
