These comics have a strong impact.
If there's one thing you can always count on, it's the powerful impact that certain comics can have on you. M. Anton Gudim's "YES, BUT" comic series is one of them.
The artist's boundless imagination creates scenarios that are not only funny enough to make us laugh but also realistic and frequently profound enough to mirror reality. As noted by Dr. Esther Perel, a renowned couples therapist, "Humor can be a bridge to deeper understanding and connection." Gudim discusses how his creative thinking process works, saying:
"I’m always observing the world around me, taking note of interesting or paradoxical situations that I encounter. These observations often serve as the basis for my comics. As for my work environment, I can create pretty much anywhere as long as it's peaceful and I have the mental space to focus."
Gudim's ability to blend humor with a perceptive look at society and daily life ensures that his work will be appreciated by his audience. We've gathered some of his newest posts that are packed with humor, and we're sure you're going to enjoy them.

There is a lot of negative criticism that comes with showcasing work on the internet, but the artist had this to say:
"Criticism is part of being a creative individual, especially when your work is shared on such a vast platform. I view every critique as an opportunity to grow and improve. However, it's crucial to distinguish between constructive criticism and simple negativity. If the critique is meaningful, it could potentially influence my future work, but I won't alter my style just due to personal dislike."7. Double Yes

The artist talked about the untapped topics or issues that he plans to address in his comics, saying:
"There are countless topics and issues I haven't touched upon yet but hope to in the future. Given the endless stream of contradictions and absurdities in our lives, there's no shortage of subjects to cover. However, I prefer to keep my plans under wraps. The surprise element of my comics, I believe, contributes to their appeal."14. Skip It
