But then I remembered: I'm a cartoonist. Why waste a skilled professional's time when I could just spend 10 years of my life making an autobiographical comic and call it a "voyage of self-discovery"?

If you ever find yourself in the midst of an existential crisis, don't make a comic about it. See a therapist
