Then do I have a comic for you! Eh, maybe it&#8217;s not fair to declare either of these people as a villain or a hero, that&#8217;s for you to decide. Things start off with a young woman coming home with some groceries. She notices her downstairs neighbor staring at her out the window as she gets home and calls a friend about it, and it&#8217;s obviously something that happens on a regular basis. The guy never leaves the house and creeps her out in general, so she decides to do a bit of research to find out about him. She discovers that he&#8217;s a cartoonist who hasn&#8217;t published anything for several years, but quickly runs into a wall in her research when the landlady refuses to offer any information. She then manages to get her hands on his apartment keys, leaving only the slight problem of being unable to break into his place because he never leaves. This is when the awkwardness and the tension really gets going. Things end on a real _____ note (I don&#8217;t want to give away the ending by saying what kind of note), with some real ambiguity about who is or isn&#8217;t doing the right thing. It&#8217;s certainly engrossing, with all kinds of open-ended questions about boundaries (real and imagined) between neighbors. $5<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/?attachment_id=25133\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-25133\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-25133\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-232x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-768x995.jpg 768w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-193x250.jpg 193w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-135x175.jpg 135w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-29x38.jpg 29w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006-166x215.jpg 166w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171210_0006.jpg 1548w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 232px) 100vw, 232px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Apartment Number Three Are you looking for a comic that will take a little bit of awkwardness and keep right on going with it until you&#8217;re no longer sure of the hero\/villain of the piece!
