  • A six-panel comic drawn in graphite on off-white paper titled “Leverage, explained”. Panels 1 through 4 and 6 are the same size; panel 5 is twice as tall.

Panel 1: A man struggles to lift a large ball. Three tiny stick-figure people watch in the distance.
Panel 2: The ball has been placed on a horizontal scale. The man holds it level on the other end. The stick figure crowd is still watching him.
Panel 3: The man begins to push down on his side of the scale, lifting the ball slightly. The stick figure crowd is growing, pointing at and filming him.
Panel 4: The man is straining to lift the ball higher. The crowd of spectators continues to grow. Three of them have joined the man; two hang by their hands from the handle of the scale, and a third sits on top of it.
Panel 5: The man has lifted the ball high into the air; too high. He watches in horror as it begins to roll back down the scale, towards him. His stick figure helpers have either fallen off the edge of the scale handle or cling to it to stay on. More have joined to watch. Below the ball, a taller, thinner second person is standing and watching the man with a lit cigarette in his hand.
Panel 6: The man has been squashed by the ball. The scale lays toppled over in the background. Most of the crowd of spectators have been knocked over, and the few left standing watch in horror or flee. The second person watches on with their back turned.

  • A pen-drawn two panel comic on off-white paper titled “Today’s comics… Day… & Night”. In the top panel, several cartoon people of various sizes are reading newspapers. The largest among them is a woman looking sadly down at her newspaper. Above her head, a swirled thought bubble rises and expands to form the frame of the panel. In the bottom panel, the woman lies awake in bed in the dark, eyes wide and hair messy, grabbing the bed sheets. A clock on her nightstand reads “2:30”. The binding of the sketchbook goes vertically up the left edge of the page.

  • A 2-point perspective drawing of a cityscape drawn in shades of brown and black ink on white paper titled “Disconnect” in the lower left corner. From the bottom left to top right corners, a road lined with cracked sidewalks leads into a city. Where the road reaches the city, there is a “road closed” sign, and on the road beyond it stick figure people are biking and playing. Outside the city, on the left, are several vacant lots and a large hole in the ground. Inside the city are many large buildings covered in windows. Behind the city is a stone wall topped with barbed wire, and the binding of a sketchbook runs along the top of the page.
