Coming To Terms With Your Happiness

A comic I made when I was 23 and still love

Hi gang,

It’s a busy week with no childcare over here so I thought I’d share a comic from 2012, when I was 23 years old and living in Oakland, California. It was one of my first ever published comics – I sold it to The Hairpin for probably $100 or something, and thought I’d die of happiness.

I feel like so many artists are like I can’t stand looking at my old work! but I’ve never felt that way. Maybe it’s because my work hasn’t really ever been about my technical drawing skills. But I find that if I liked it then, I usually I can still appreciate it years later.

Thanks for being here,

❤️ Hal
