Status Updates From Assorted Crisis Events Vol. 1

Holy crap.

What a page.

The fourth story is about a man whose “time flies” by without him even noticing it. He goes to school, gets a job, gets married, has kids, cheats on his wife with both women and men, gets divorced, loses contact with his kids and loved ones, gets cancer due to his excessive smoking habit, then commits suicide. All the while feeling like none of his decisions were really his, This shit is making me depressed AF

Two parallel towns in different dimensions. The survivors of the town where the world is dying faster decide to escape and take refuge in their town in the mirror universe, and that’s when we see the darker side of humanity, as the initially welcoming citizens of the new town slowly start to turn jealous, and hateful, which spreads to their doppelgängers and leads the new town to the same fate as the old one.

Damn! This one hit really hard. Made me check my privilege and see things through the eyes of another person. “We’re all just cows being bread with no choice at all in the matter”

Not to mention the eerie meta commentary that reflect our current real world problems: someone always making money off the end of the world, cops being assholes, and the meat factory worker who supposedly died horribly in an accident with the factory machine, and you guessed it, the employers didnt give a flying fuck even though the guy had been working there for over 20 years. God Damn!

One issue and a half in, and I can already tell this is going to be sad and depressing as hell: the fact that apocalyptic movies are still trending despite the current apocalypse happening, people randomly dying and being time displaced, and the protagonist(of this issue) literally trying to kill herself at the end. It’s all weirdly working for me though
