Artist Uses Dark Humor In These 30 Comics, And You Will Love All Of The Sneaky References They Made

Someone out there is turning everyday life into dark little comic panels, and the sneaky references are so good you almost miss them the first time. One strip has a Pringle can acting like it wants your entire arm, another turns a kids’ movie into the kind of “missing part of the story” you do not ask for at bedtime.

It gets even more specific as the jokes keep stacking up: YouTubers are doing way too much, a religion-and-Earth creation setup gets handled with humor that feels just slightly too pointed, and “trust falling” suddenly looks like a bad decision with a body count. Throw in conspiracy vibes, decision-making games for choices you would never make in real life, and the always-awkward moment when the alcoholic will do anything to keep drinking, and you’ve got a whole gallery of “wait, what did I just see?” moments.

By the time the writer’s block gets unblocked and everything starts pouring out, you’ll be hunting for the next reference like it’s the real punchline.

When you realize you can claim this as stolen on your insurance and get a much better car instead of dealing with this one.

Robots are definitely going to take over the world, and it's all starting with simple things like social media.

This is for all those who can see a bit of humor in religion and the creation of the Earth from this perspective.

Who would have thought that this song could be taken so literally and turned into something dark?

This is actually pretty funny if you think about it. YouTubers are just doing way too much now.

This one might not make a lot of sense to some of you, but if you're into conspiracies and the secrets of our government, then you'll get it.

Decision-making games are my favorite for making choices I would never really make in real life.

last_place_comics

The infamous Pringle can that tries to take your entire arm off when you go to grab some of the last chips.

last_place_comics

Well, if you don't know what a mind place is, then this is a sign that you probably need one because it will change your life.

The addiction to sugary cereal seems to stand out in this one, and it turns out they don't like advertising.

last_place_comics

Looks like there was part of the story missing from the children's movie that we all saw.

last_place_comics

Well, this makes me not want to eat fast food that much anymore because I wouldn't want to imagine this every time.

last_place_comics

If we could go back in time to fix these things, this is exactly what that would look like because whatever happened already happened and was supposed to happen.

last_place_comics

When the writer's block becomes unblocked and everything just starts pouring out.

This comic-style tension matches the AITA where someone served a surprise vegan meal at family dinner.

This is why we should have stopped 'trust falling' a long time ago.

last_place_comics

Well, that's not a villain we should be that scared of.

last_place_comics

Well, now that's some talent—someone should hire them for a movie.

last_place_comics

These gifts each year just keep getting weirder and weirder.

last_place_comics

When you're so invested in the character and don't want them to be gone.

last_place_comics

When the alcoholic will do anything to keep drinking.

last_place_comics

This is something that would happen in a parallel universe.

last_place_comics

Oh, so this is how they did things back then.

I'm not even sure what happened in this one, but okay.

last_place_comics

If this is how fighting games really were.

last_place_comics

This is so dark but provides a good perspective on the life of someone going through this.

last_place_comics

When you're searching for your password that you can't remember, but you also can't recall where you wrote it.

last_place_comics

People will do anything to seem pretty cool.

last_place_comics

How does this even prove that, though?

Right after the Pringle can tries to take your arm off, the whole vibe shifts from “lol” to “okay, this artist is serious about dark comedy.”

Then the comics swing to social media and robots taking over, like the whole world is being run from the most suspicious comment section imaginable.

The mood turns extra sharp when the religion and Earth-creation perspective hits, because it’s funny, but it also feels like it’s quietly roasting the setup.

And when the writer’s block becomes unblocked, pouring out whatever it wants, you realize these panels are basically one long scavenger hunt for references.

Those 30 comics were funny and also quite dark. Some of them definitely shed light on situations that people need to pay more attention to, but we really appreciate these artists for bringing up these topics in a humorous way, which makes it easier to connect with people.

What do you think about these comics?

You’ll laugh, then immediately start re-reading every strip like it owes you an explanation.
