Meditation Funnies #1

Meditation! Who does it? Do you? I clearly don’t, as I’m already rambling at the start of this review, which can’t be the sign of a calm and collected mind. This comic, as you may have guessed from that title, is based on a meditation session. Or it’s fictional; no further clues are given past that title. In this meditation, our hero is constantly interrupted and harassed by a malevolent imp, although he seems to have enough trouble meditating even when he’s left completely alone. As you can see from the sample image, the art style screams “stuck in a work meeting, trying to look like you’re taking notes,” although maybe “minimalist” would be a nicer way to phrase it. Elias (or maybe he goes by M.?) sent along a gaggle of his mini comics, so I’ll get a more complete idea of his work over the coming weeks and months. Based on one issue? It’s… fine. A couple of funny bits, some interesting interpretations of the idea of meditation, and you’re done. Which is fine! It’s a shortie, and (as you can see on the cover), it’s free. So for the meditating people in the audience, give it a shot why don’t you? I’m assuming he’ll at least want you to cover postage, so if you’re interested check to see what the deal is.
