"My style is sort of a result of trying to nail a formula that gets the most eyes on my work."

The artist depicts their beliefs in their webcomics in a surprisingly funny and satirical way. When questioned about some of the influences that may have aided in the discovery and development of their art style, the creator replied:

"There’s a very specific style that has sort of been cultivated on places like Reddit and Instagram; people are more attracted to certain color palettes, minimalist shapes, and designs. So my style is sort of a result of trying to nail a formula that gets the most eyes on my work."

The artist was asked how long it takes them to complete their comics, as creating art in any form takes a lot of time, both to practice and to produce. He replied:

"Obviously, it depends, but not that long. I used to make about five comics a week but moved to only making about one to two a week to preserve quality. The art is relatively easy compared to trying to come up with jokes; that’s definitely the hard part. Honestly, now I’ll only spend the time drawing and editing a comic if the joke really resonates with me."
