Adam’s comics are funny, relatable, and easy to understand; hence, his ability to attract many people. Like us, many other websites have featured works of the talented cartoonist. After spending some years with Buzzfeed, he left to become an independent illustrator. Subsequently, he released a collection of autobiographical comics named Super Chill: A Year of Living Anxiously in 2018.

From building to creating

As a young child, Adam built small villages in the woods using rocks and stones and filled them with snail shells and dead bugs. According to him, he usually set the towns he built on fire.

He focuses on social issues like self-esteem issues, seasonal affective disorder, and some everyday topics. During his free time, he watches cult documentaries. His wish is to own a big backyard he can use to raise chickens.
