What the hell is that, a DnD cantrip?

Um, actually inception means beginning. A self repeating pattern is called a recursion. Reinsulatedpapersion would be more accurate ☝️🤓

Paper cut, but along the pee hole

I thought the extra paper was just used to prevent smearing of the draft.

You thought right!

This is brilliant. As a left handed person, is this what will finally help me write christmas cards that aren’t a streaky mess? 🥹

Just write your sentences backwards. Geez.

u/TK523 1h ago

I thought you were using it as a drawing reference which would have been super meta

u/shallowHalliburton 1h ago

Ooooh. I thought it was a reference which made me wonder a reference for paper was needed.

Did not expect to see a comic about a piece of paper getting cucked.

Neat.

But think about it this way!

You're so perfect that you're a reference point! That or your immortalized in a comic.

One day you will be drawn on. One day

I read it as they're the paper the artist is resting their hand on, to prevent smudging the actual comic.

But, as long as they stay clean, they could be a future comic.

10/10 foreshadowing

u/theyoyoha yoyoha 2h ago

thought of this comic while making another comic, then used the same piece of paper i rested my hand on on that comic while making this comic. poor guy has been so close yet so far twice.

Now’s the time to make him an airplane and he’ll realize he was never meant for the desk but the sky

u/ObliWobliKenobli 2h ago

My stupidity might be showing, but I have no idea what's going on, and why the artist is using the paper for absolutely nothing?

17

u/theyoyoha yoyoha 2h ago

Not stupidity, just inexperience with inking comics or drawing in general. It's best to use a piece of paper under your hand to protect the paper/artwork from the natural oils on your skin and from smudging when inking.

u/camelCase9 2h ago

wrist rest so as not to smudge the below art

u/leviathynx 2h ago

At least it wasn’t a rough draft for r/dragonsfuckingcars

paper needs to count its blessings

I am sad now ☹️

u/Ulrizza 2h ago

You need to do another comic where this beautiful piece of paper is happy!

u/Macamagucha 1h ago

Meta, meta. Cool, cool, cool.

u/rillip 2h ago

It is my great pleasure to inform you that there were considerably less paper cuts in this comic than I at first feared.

u/Marshycereals 1h ago

This is so meta and I love it

This should be a left handed joke

•

u/theyoyoha yoyoha 38m ago

When I do that it feels like someone else is drawing it

•

u/glytxh 35m ago

I'll use the same piece of paper for months an become weirdly attached to it after a while

•

u/Carlosenlightened 31m ago

The last slide makes it even funnier

u/The_Mutton_Man 25m ago

Hey that piece of paper is very important

In my high school art class (80s) we called it the Smudge Paper. Nice to know people are still doing this. For all I know, The Kids Today embrace having a hand smeared with various colors.
