Motel Universe 2 by Joakim Drescher

 

(Secret Acres, 2020) I am not saying this is the best comic of 2020, but this is truly THE comic of 2020. Drescher's bizarre, raw, upsetting, Mark Beyer-meets-Bosch renderings paint ugly pictures of evil, dysfunctional governments, of impassioned rebellion, and of the dark, oppressive manipulations and labor crimes associated with the tech and style the proletariat turn towards to cope with dark times. This great Dane's work is sadly too real to be surreal.
