i like the phosphorescent green haze
in lower corner, a beacon to screen,
the image onscreen reminds me of a
Kaz character, foggy underneath,
the small grey dot escaping maybe
a thought balloon,
massive straction.
I don't think I ever get what Blaise's posts have to do with abstract comics...
hahaha, that's kinda funny Andrei, I just assumed he was posting abstract photo comics.
A one panel gag abstract comic?
oops forgot to add
of all of Blaise's abstract photo comics this one I think is the most successful.
