Did my research on Icelandic moss only to realize that freestyling will be the most accurate way of drawing it 🌱

This is by far my favorite #comic about quantum physics, made by none other than @jkbeetle@mastodon.social
Magically, it is very experimental in its use of the comics medium, yet at the same time effortlessly funny and relatable.
A blue business guy and a red punk rock guy live very different lives, yet are "entangled" and therefore unwittingly mess with each other's day, leading to hilarious scenes.
A prime example of comics being able to depict complex stuff with ease and grace.
Unfortunately, this is real.
Six pages have been taken out of the original manga and some of the panels are blocked with "speed lines". Works mentioning LGBTQIA* relationships or a childfree lifestyle are self-censored this way.
The manga "Что у нее с лицом" ("What's wrong with her face") by Japanese artist Mogukon originally deals with growing up, poverty and living with atopic skin desease.
The Russian version is now also a reflection on oppression.

@Exciton@chaos.social Only @jkbeetle@mastodon.social can say if there's copies left, I'm afraid 🤞🏼
(I've got mine at a meeting between comic artists and theoretical physicists, Beetlebum was there as well.)
