Forever and Everything #6<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case you’re curious if a guy who does regular diary style comics kept going during the pandemic, the subtitle of this one is “the pre-pandemic naivete issue.” Which makes me naturally curious to read the next issue, as I’m oddly fascinated to see how artists handled the past year, so I may break my usual “don’t review the same artist twice in quick succession” rule. Which gets broken every now and then anyway, and it’s not like I have a boss breathing down my neck one way or the other. Anyway! This is a collection of this strips from right before the pandemic, which was formerly known as “normal life.” Subjects include watching a bird frenzy, modern technology helping with the lawn mowing, trying to explain that he’s not up the task of making a phone call to the doctor adequately, the checklist when he leaves the house, termites, dipping fries in milk, the thought of being trapped in a dentist’s chair listening to the hygienist, trying to maximize his reading time, attempting the ill-advised trick of urinating into an empty bottle while driving, explaining the meaning behind the terminology of ska fans to his young daughter, and a few other things that I’ll leave as a total surprise. As always, I chuckled more than a few times reading this, and yes, that does count as a recommendation. This is also a series where you’ll be OK if you haven’t read the first five issues, so jump in wherever, give it a shot! $5<\/p>\n\n\n\n
