Talented Artist Shares 20+ Amusing Comics That Are Quite Dark But Very Relatable
Comics that have a unique style and offbeat sensibility
Some comics feel like they’re trying to comfort you, and then Andy shows up with panels that are dark, dumb, and weirdly spot-on. His 20+ jokes take that “too relatable to be safe” feeling and crank it until it’s funny again, even when the punchline makes you wince.
The complicated part is the internet itself. Andy’s talking about how social media can turn into a cruel little casino for comic creators, where one post hits like a meteor and the next one gets ignored, all because of algorithm vibes nobody can predict. One minute you’re riding the high of likes and follows, the next minute you’re staring at your own work like, “Wait, what did I do wrong?”
And honestly, by the time you hit the toilet-laugh line, you’ll get why these comics hit so hard.
1. Wait, what?

When the panels go from “Wait, what?” to “I’m so proud,” you can practically hear the algorithm yanking the rug out from under Andy’s timeline.
The power of social media is paradoxical. Unknown artists can become more well-known as it gives creators the chance to build a following without depending on traditional publishing gatekeepers.
However, the artist says that comic book creators may find that social media sites can become their deadliest adversaries. Their algorithms create a vicious loop in which a comic's spectacular performance can leave them feeling dejected and frustrated, while an onslaught of likes and follows can be thrilling.
The randomness of these algorithms gives the impression that posting is controlled by an arbitrary deity who grants rewards and punishes offenders in an equally unpredictable manner.

Right after the “vicious loop” explanation, the comic beats land even harder, because every “Oh well” feels like it came straight from a notification refresh.
The whole “It did say so” and “Doesn’t solve the problem” sequence hits like that moment you realize the feed isn’t listening, it’s just scrolling.
And when the last stretch turns into “Replying...” and “The audiobook narrator,” it’s basically Andy’s way of saying, even chaos can still produce chuckles.
As a comic book creator, Andy tries to focus on the aspects he can control, such as honing his craft, improving his writing, and releasing content that truly resonates with him. When asked what he thinks readers will take away from his comics, Andy had a succinct response, saying, "If I can make just one person chuckle while they're on the toilet, then it is all worth it."
So share this post if Andy's comics made you laugh.
He’s not trying to beat the algorithm, he’s trying to make you laugh while you’re on the toilet.
