    Why does it feel like every comic by this guy is drawn completely identically, just with different dialogue each time lol

      It’s called efficiency and you should know about it. We might have to put you on PIP afterall…

        I don’t mean the style, I mean the exact same layout, expressions, comedic formula, etc

        I swear I’ve seen like 5 of these comics where the drawing is literally identical with only the dialogue changed

        Not hating, obviously folks like em, just making am observation

          It’s the cyanide and happiness formula - copy and paste anything that doesn’t absolutely need to be redrawn.

          Maybe it’s the simplicity of the art style. Big round heads, small body’s, usually posed standing, everyone is same shape, dialogue focused comedy. I don’t know, I’m just spit balling here.

          Edit: having a look at the website the comic is publishes you are right. Hell you’re even more right today since the last two comics are almost exactly same. Same characters, same positioning, same actions. The only difference is the dialogue and the facial expressions.

          I imagine the artist has a bunch of stock art he just cuts and pasted in to the comic so he doesn’t have to redraw something he’s already drawn.
