Grand Ballroom of Doom
By April 12, 2021

Two panel comic from the Two panel comic from the Artblog comics series "Grand Ballroom of Doom." The first panel of the comic depicts a man during the second week of the pandemic, looking cheerful and carrying a freshly baked loaf of bread. The second panel shows the same man during the second year of the pandemic. He looks older and more worn out. He sits in an empty, dark room with only scarce sunshine coming in between the dawn blinds. His back is again the wall and he clothes his legs while he holds a beer can. There are more empty beer cans surrounding him.
