A man approaches a kfc. “Damn, I really gotta go in there huh” he laments.

The restaurant is littered with insects and bodies in torment. A slumped corpse sits beside the door, with an impaled torso across from it. A fly eaten, desicated head sits in the foreground along with an individual actively being flayed, their skin peeling down to their feet as hooks greedily tug at their face. As he breaches the entrance, he immediately looses his disgust, yelling “DAMN! YALL REALLY SELLING CHICKEN LIKE THIS?”

He heads to the counter where the devil waits. Concerned, he asks “hey man, what can I get here that’s not dirty?” “Bottled water” the devil replies.

They sag their shoulders and a crease their brow as they get their water. “Fuckin’ Dasani?”

    Yeah, that one took me a bit, and I’ve read hundreds of their comics. They’re a great artist, but this was not their finest work. Still love the punchline, though. Disappointment into disappointment into tentative hope into disappointment is my jam.

        Art is subjective so you’re entitled to your preferences.

        Is what I would say if flork wasn’t objectively awesome and you’re wrong for saying otherwise. /s

        You, a person who knows nothing of this artist beyond this comic, seem completely certain about that. I don’t care to point you in the right direction, honestly

          I’ve seen a LOT of this same shitty artist drawing these same shitty characters. You know they’re constantly posted here on Lemmy. I’ve seen 'em all. But this one has been the worst because it required you to explain wtf is happening. I respect that the artist has ideas he wants to share via comics, I get it, I have a lot of ideas too that I can’t skillfully draw either.
