Imagine – John Lennon

Imagine - John Lennon (Pablo Stanley Art)

I finally colored this comic 🙂
You can buy a print in the form below.
Disclaimer:

  • This is NOT an anti-religion/atheist-propaganda comic. The comic and the song (at least as I understand it) tries to communicate that no matter your faith, we should all share the world in peace… As silly as that sounds.
  • Yes, MLK, Gandhi and Marley were spiritual people. Read point one 🙂
  • This is NOT an antisemitic comic. The Israeli soldier is breaking the cycle of war to play some football. Come on!
  • That is Anna Politkovskaya, an awesome Russian journalist, writer and activist.
  • Yes, John Lennon probably was a douche wife-beater, but still, “Imagine” transcends the unpleasant facts about its composer.

You can see the original comic in black and white + some colors here.

Internships

Expectations VS Realities of internships

I’m not saying all internships are bad but, unfortunately, a lot of them are just rip-offs. Specially on big ‘cool’ companies where there are plenty of eager aspirants waiting for the chance to take your position. You get on an unpaid internship thinking of the experience you would receive and how it would help you land a good job in the future. Instead you end up doing chores that have no learning value like picking up coffee and other stuff that the company would otherwise have to pay someone for.

Do you have any internship horror stories, or maybe a good experience you would like to talk about? Share on the comments!

Atheism vs Theism vs Agnosticism vs Gnosticism. A simple guide to know what the hell you are.

Atheist VS Agnostic. A simple guide to know what the hell you are.

There is always confusion on knowing what belief position we have. Atheist? Agnostic? Theist? Gnostic? I found a guide online and I thought I could improve it by adding characters and make it a bit friendlier. Now you can know what the hell you are. That’s, of course, if you believe in hell… or know there is a hell… Or believe in hell, but don’t really know… Oh, God, I give up.

The search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence

et-intelligence

When I was young, I was fascinated with the idea of E.T. intelligence; worlds of creatures like us, up there, wondering about the same. How would their thinking be like? What would they look like? Is their technology better than us? Do they have ‘gods’ like us?… I was also a bit of a UFO nut, I recorded VHS videos of different sightings and I do presentations to my classroom about it. Needless to say, they thought I was crazy. In a sense, there’s still that poster from Agent Mulder hung in my head; “I want to believe”.

A Cruelty Free World

A Cruelty Free World

Back when I was 16, and I called my self a ‘punk-rocker’, I took the decision to become a vegetarian. I’ve been a veggies mass murderer ever since.

EDIT: Just to be clear. Please don’t think I’m one of those annoying vegetarians that start preaching people about how meat is bad for them, the world and shit like that. I hate those people. I used to love eating meat-quesadillas before. The decision I took when I was young was a very personal one. I really don’t give a fuck what anyone else stuffs their face with.

Regret

Regret - Darth Vader

A man reflecting on his life, realizes he has wronged many people but still has only one regret.

My intentions were to make a ‘Father’s Day’ story, but I ended up writing a comic about the worst dad ever, ha!

I consider Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader’s story one of the most tragic one’s there is (yeah, even if the prequels sucked). A man who fell from the light to the deepest dark. The strong color contrast used in the comic reflects that feeling.

The Seven Holy Sins

The Seven Holy Sins

This is my adaptation from a joke originally told by mexican comedian ‘Polo Polo’. The Seven Holy Sins are formed by some of my favorite artists that, sadly, have passed away.

Kurt Cobain on the drums, finally in the back, not on the spotlight; Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon on guitar; Sid Vicious on bass; Biggie Smalls on turntables and Freddie Mercury and Janis Joplin on vocals. Finally, Tupac managing them and feating from time to time, which would probably make them the EIGHT holy sins, but who’s counting. A band, literally, made in heaven.

Who said you couldn’t read a comic with a soundtrack? Thank you Mr. Poop. You are the sh*t!

I made this comic a year ago, but hadn’t published it on my blog. Back in the day, I used to draw my comics on paper. Now that I see them, they look a bit outdated, but still good. I want to think I’ve gotten better with time 🙂

Sorry for the…

Sorry for the...

Sorry for the… overuse of old memes. Sorry for the popular culture stuff. Sorry for the huge face. Sorry for the things I said. Sorry for the things I hid. Sorry for being drunk and reckless. Sorry for breaking your heart. Sorry for being the worst. Sorry for giving up. Sorry I kept you in a prison. Sorry for not being man enough. Sorry for not feeling anything.
