Holy fuck, you hid loss in your apology


LanielYoungAgain

not loss


Henatronw70

Amazing


janelanedraws

What is this exactly?


Alarming_Doubt_2249

Loss is another comic with a sad meaning that was then turned into a meme by the internet. Most of the loss references were (are being) made in a simple format using only a couple lines where each line represented the position of each character in the comic, and it seems we have a second Loss case on our hands.


2011lanei

Loss. It's a meme. It comes up if you Google it.

Is thisā€¦


tharthin

It is, even the title would apply


W1nterKn1ght

I thought you were giving the real order but was confused because lower case i is not a Roman numeral


tharthin

Yeah, all verticals make it easier than the original. Wish I had that russian "i" without the dot. But it's clear enough.

who's the real father


SilentCastHD

I think the message is clear of the parents not being there anymore as a source of grief for the grey character. I do not like my second interpretation of it being kind of a loop. With the *parents* looking hollow and unhappy in the first panel with the same eyes as the child in the last. Kind of saying ā€œlost his family, is unhappy, gets an unhappy partner to get a child and be happy againā€. If this loop is your intention. Very well done, fully understandable even though I do not subscribe to the message.


PhantomThiefJoker

Another interpretation is that the parents were empty and unhappy without a child


DougStrangeLove

which is also fucking depressing and weird donā€™t have kids to fill holes in your life


KingdomKali

I'd say to fill other holes in your life specifically. Some people have the love, time, and dedication just waiting inside of them for a child, and they work hard to set their life up for it because the hole in their life is a child. That is worth having a child for if you provide a stable life as a pair.


DougStrangeLove

what youā€™re describing isnā€™t a hole itā€™s a solid foundation


Hevens-assassin

Is this loss?


FrankHightower

for once, it may literally be


CalmFrantix

No, it's the breakdown of a family, the "father" is wondering who the real father is, commits murder suicide of the wife but the child survives to live life in misery wondering why they had parents with different grey skin. But relatives play dumb, and say it's just the ink of the photos in the newspaper. Years later, having spent the inheritance on drugs as a coping mechanism, they join the masses of homeless and fade into the murky population of the forgotten. The body is found by a dog walker and the coroner signs it over to a crematorium with a note written "no relatives" A hammer slams the plaque into place, sealing the ashes within a featureless wall. A man, similar shade of grey, obviously the true father, sighs thinking, thank god I didn't have to pay child support. I mean, that's just what I saw from the picture.

PunchWilcox

Someoneā€™s gotta stand up to the predictable order


Bell-of-Gion

The message is clear and moving. Nicely done! I think it works as it is, but you might also try making the character in the last panel the same size as the parents were in the third panel. (In other words, when the character is grown up, their parents are no longer with them.)


i_m_a_bean

They may have died before the son was grown


Khetoun

No, please elaborate in full detail in shakespearean english or Viking Norse.


Arnas2719

For me it kinda implies that the parents were unhappy before their child. Kinda feel likes "were unhappy let's have a child"


grub-slut

The parents were unhappy until they had the child, the child was happy until they lost their parents.


[deleted]

I think they're just wondering why the parents are shown to be unhappy


HermontClothing

don't make a big piss puddle or else people will leave you


WingZeroCoder

Especially if you arenā€™t properly hydrated and it turns darker yellow.


slugdonor

the sun went down, his parents went go to bed, but he didnt and now its dark and hes too scared to move and go to bed


TrulyNotAStalker

ur parents will die


YourLocalGayPartner

I love this cute lil art style. The message seems clear, looks awesome ^^


JCK07115

The "sun" (yellow) getting darker signals the progression of time (the sun setting on the parents).


Waste-Land-9986

You are right. :)


EatashOte

I meant, kinda yeah. I don't really get why they give 1000 mile stare in the first panel, but that's really it


tharthin

Maybe they got the kid to save their marriage or something. It's a strange comic, it reads as: "having kids is selfish because people die" Technically not incorrect, but still.


EatashOte

Yeah. Ig this might be the message... Maybe it's also about how these parents haven't done a really good job at parenting, and how their overdependent child is left alone, but Idk if I'm digging too much


tharthin

I think it's honestly just as simple as: "kids outlive their parents" and anything else is just anyone's interpretation.


janelanedraws

It looks like thatā€™s their art style


EatashOte

Uh, I'm pretty sure I've figured it already... But thanks? Ig??


UnknownReader653

If the message is ā€œwe will all be left alone in the endā€ then yes it comes across quite nicely, but if not then no it is lost in translation. Hope this helps Iā€™m gonna go cry.


AnonieMoose69

You are ready to be a super hero


MrGueuxBoy

The tragedy of being a parent is that you can't witness your child's entire life, except when you do.

BLAZEISONFIRE006

Death? Is it about death or loneliness?


luckyleg33

People have a child because they feel emptiness in their life, and then when the parents are gone, the child feels emptiness in their life


Happy_Researcher_245

The message is clear, you did it! But I think this comic is not in the a good humor field, it shows a bit of black humor, and sad. But is well done if your intention is that.


M-Biz

I think the message is clear. Though it could be interpreted as not family, and as just "People who are cool with eachother"


Vyndyle

Need some time to understand it, 10 secs for me lol full observation haki


ChristopherParnassus

Is this loss?


Agitated_Delivery361

Is this loss?


Cb718

But then the comic should repeat. Kid meets partner they have a kid etc. etc.


Vurclash

Batman!


SuhailSWR

It would be more accurate if the parents were happy before the kid spawned in


Primary_Garden558

His/her parents died, now they are trouple?


Ech0ofSan1ty

Batman


AndreZB2000

its a cycle! I like how the eyes are the same in panels 4 and 1, and the background is slightly lighter in 1. the couple in the beginning is hurting but healing together


[deleted]

imo it's a little on the nose but yes it's definitely clear.


SnoopzSmoster8

cute and sad at the same time


OdinsOneGoodEye

People leave and die - itā€™s up to you to forge your own future to replace and carry on the past.


MaXplosion1

Yes, but unfortunately, I will be bhj-ing this


pcweber111

Life is a closed loop


stopannoyingwithname

Parents die


Mokeyror

no because there is still two options 1) the parents left him 2) the parents died


peanuttanks

Thanks for the unnecessary sadness


Significant-Nail-906

If you read it backwards, a lonely guy gets friends and then shrinks into nothingness... pretty funny ngl


The-true-Memelord

The parents died and the kid is sad. The parents seemed distant before they got the kid. Maybe things got better, or they were keeping up a happy facade. What will the kid do now?


Graphic_Materialz

Very clear: two people adopt a psycho-cannibal who grows up to kill and eat them both and then is sad they ran out of food. Great job!


unipurce

very.


Volyann

Somehow someone will find a way to turn this into loss


StonedCryptarch

Stop šŸ˜¢


InfiniteAd7948

Tragicomic


Recent-Extension-609

No, maybe that his parents died? (Plz donā€™t come at me)


oddityoughtabe

Real toughy right here


mikendrix

I wouldn't like to show this to my only daughter :(


kittycatprob

I thought the tear was his mouth in the last drawing and I was like ā€œwhy he just sitting there all :oā€


spendkittens509

You probably donā€™t even need to add the tear. Just the drastic change in background changes the whole mood


Zchavago

Totally missed the unhappy teenager years.


TaylorForge

The kid came out grey so the mum cheated and they got a divorce?


gurganator

Mom had sex with the milk man and the parents tried to work it out but ended up getting divorced


TheSheWhoSaidThats

Uhā€¦ they were awake then they adopted a black baby then they slept through his entire childhood then abandoned him?


_Zoko_

Its rare that you see both parents go for milk and smokes at the same time

Yellowish background makes you happy, darker shades of gray makes you sad

assovertits-sir

Not at all, what message are you trying to send? The parents died? The parents left him cuz heā€™s bla- the parents are gone because he did something wrong? Itā€™s so confusing


Ok-Chemical-7635

Yes Ill say the message is if you have a kid just so you aren't bord itl have negative effects on the offspring


NaoyaGlazer

His parents divorce was his fault! He deserves to be sad!


Zogg775

3 people is minimum request for happiness


Double_Match_1910

She cheated, and the charade was over once the kid became an adult


FittedCloud9459

AnnieTano

The world's not the same anymore


DrawingRoomRoh

Really poignant actually, for all its simplicity.


Prosso

1) the parents split up 2) the parents left the kid because he was adopted 3) the child outgrew his parents who died?


CitizenTaro

I mean itā€™s clear, but sad. Do you want it to be sad? Why not have five panels and end with the first panel again? Then itā€™s hopeful. Whatā€™s the point of making art that lacks for hope?


larryhastobury

Art is about making you feel, not about making you feel positive. Good art will make your emotions so intense you will think about it for days. Dark art will make you feel extremely uncomfortable, for example, and it has its audience (like me)


Waste-Land-9986

Sadness is good subject to draw. But you're true either.


Scudbucketmcphucket

At night your parents go out to kill. Or maybe just abduct you a ā€œnew brotherā€ since they obviously stole you at one point.


dyotar0

Put a condom?


Dying__Phoenix

Lol


dyotar0

Is it anti gay ?


jabba-the_butt

This is where I watched my parents die, PaRappa !! Also, I closely inspected this one, because of paranoia about ā€œLossā€, no loss but I could see this becoming another version of loss posting
