This is Shen. He's never been very deep. 90% of his comics are literally a generic humanoid called "Life" beating him up and then the comments are filled with "Are you ok, shen?". I thought reddit had enough of him but apparently he's leaking over here now too...

Have you seen any of his comics from the last year?

I don't keep up with Shen comics (besides this bizarre resurgence I've noticed recently) but that was only ever the first few years he was around.

A few years of "life sucks" was enough for me and now I avoid his unfunny comics. The art style is too "rage comics" for me still.

This guy doesn't like the classical masters!

It still happens.

I think I've liked all his shit, from the concept-people like "life", to the creepypastas, to the more introspective stuff, even to the obsession with women / yuri lol.

Yeah the comics don't go deep, but I like his voice.
