I occasionally make comics and other silly images. Welcome to my Haven of Oddities! https://linktr.ee/havenofoddities

The first comic in the "Making for Nowhere" series, back in 2021 before it ever had a name! It was brought about from a university assignment where the only prompt was to make a "short form comic". The series has had quite the visual makeover over its lifetime.

A comic simply titled "Title Here".

Panel 1: An opossum and a raccoon lie on their backs on a grassy hill in the shade of a tree. The opossum asks "Do you ever think that there's more to life than trash?". The raccoon inquires "What do you mean?".

Panel 2: The opossum, sitting up, clarifies "That maybe there's more than just doing the same thing everyday?" 

Panel 3: Now both standing and walking away from the tree, the opossum continues, saying "Maybe there's a world out there that we're missing because of our same old routine.". 

Panels 4-7: Panels show the two animals on their routine of gathering trash as the opossum describes it. The opossum says "Everyday is the same. We go find trash, we take said trash, then we bring it back to our spot and eat it, but what if there's something *more*," "A whole bunch of stuff we're missing out on?...".

Panel 8: The two animals have now returned to their spot seated under the shade of the tree. Each one now holds a clump of trash. The opossum asks "...Do you ever think about any of that?

Panel 9: The raccoon ponders silently, looking to be truly considering the information.

Panel 10: The raccoon simply responds with "Nah.".

Hello, Bluesky! I'm an artist who occasionally makes silly things! I'm going to start posting the things I draw, alongside my comic series Making for Nowhere on here, though the earlier made comics in the series use the placeholder title "Title Here". I hope you all enjoy your stay here!

"Making for Nowhere" is written as a title in the middle of the image. Around it are three, scattered scribblings of stars. Basic, cartoonish sketches of an opossum and a raccoon stand at the bottom of the screen, waving at the viewer.
