Tongue-Tied

Finding physical copies online of the comics I got at SPACE this year seems to be a bit of an issue, but maybe this one is just too new to show up on his website? I’ll go with that. As always, you can contact the artist and ask them directly for a physical copy, but you all already know that. This one is a mostly silent comic, leaving me lots of room for interpretation, which can often end up with me hilariously misinterpreting something. Will I do it again? Let’s find out! This one starts off with our hero (the guy with the polaroid camera head) being asked by an unseen figure to tell them a story. Most of the rest of the comic is a series of silent movements, which may or may not verge into wacky territory at times, of our hero trying to accommodate this request. After the result of this search we see what the comic was actually about, which I can’t spoil here, but I can say that it was quietly devastating. It’s basically a book for people who feel like they’ve missed their moment, and possibly people who feel like they consistently miss their moment. Give it a shot if this describes you in any way, but first you have to find a copy of the comic. You can do it, says I!
