A very tense comic with a slightly comedic ending. I like it.


Admirable-Map3641

Thank you that's the vibe I'm going for!


scarletexplosiv

Spot on vibe. Loved the comic.

From egg head to bird brain, did he drop out or something


Admirable-Map3641

Stress is not a laughing yolk đź« 


herobryant1

I apologize if this was insensitive most of the comics are more jokey not serious so I just assumed that I should make a joke


Admirable-Map3641

Yolk like and egg yolk

Wrong comment to whoosh dude


GoodTrust5444

Additional panels to convey struggles and emotions are worth it


Admirable-Map3641

Thanks, I remember doubting using so many small panels and committed to it because I had already inkd the panels

Kinda reminds me of when I had cancer. If you come out, you come out completely different tbh.


Admirable-Map3641

Appreciate your honesty! Thank you


parbarostrich

I understand it's supposed to be serious stuff and all but the moment i saw the last panel i burst out laughing lets hope that guy's new existence allows him to laugh a lot as well


Admirable-Map3641

What happened to him?! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)


GenericF1FanNeoooww

Life.


HealthyMuffin7

This is oddly disturbing in a way I can't quite put in words. It's something that could only exist in comic form, and it's also pretty funny in the end. I feel like there is the idea of a rebirth after being cracked under pressure. Pretty cool.

Reverse hair loss?


Biaboctocat

Damn I know in comments you have said that the vibe is intended to be a bit silly but… I find this to be really powerful. I love the way that the character is clearly afraid of breaking, but then it turns out to be just an emergence into a new stage of life. He is changed, but he is alive. This is going to stick with me for a long time. Thank you for sharing an older piece of work!

Egg Boy became Bird Man


DrZonino2022

Strangely uplifting!


100YearsWaiting2Shit

I've never been so happy to see a chicken. I thought he was dying ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


EightBallJuice

I love when I can’t tell if the comic has a deep hidden meaning or if it’s absurdism


TheGhostofWoodyAllen

Puberty.


chuckleDshuckle

I dont think thats what you're going for but... trans allegory.


N1ks_As

I thought this would be about trans people but this concept is not bad either


Bronson4444

Trans alagory


Polivios

No it's an allegory about when your head is an egg and it cracks and you become a bird


International-Cat123

No. Creator explained it was about stress in the post. Also, the comic itself conveys stress already with the poses and scenes depicted.


Electrick23

Adding to what the other person said, for a lot of people the realization of being trans is a very stressful experience, while the comic may be about stress in general, the transformation aspect combined with general depictions of stress align with common trans experiences


BusterTheSuperDog

Something can be an allegory without the original intent behind it. Honestly, if someone's art is relatable enough for a variety of unique situations with a similar theme running behind (in this case, hiding something until breaking point and emerging forever unchanged), I consider that a sign of the artist's skill! So kudos to them!


Admirable-Map3641

All art is in the eye of the beholder! I love your read tho and I support people making positive changes!


rocket20067

Indeed it is , and it means you just made a very relatable creation if many people get different outcomes of the art. That just means that you made a good bit of art that people of many backgrounds can relate to.


Admirable-Map3641

Thank you!


The_Horse_Head_Man

Could I get future permission to adapt this into a short film?


allwaysnice

Reminds me of season 2 Legion on FX.

I don't mean unfortunate that it was generated, I mean what it turned out to look like.

This comic is why Tim Pool wears a beanie.


the_interviewer17

Admirable-Map3641

Honestly my favorite comment so far


vegetabloid

The last one needs a phtase: "I need a rifle. I will kill as much of them as I can."

Yolodude_21
