    This has the same energy as those Wobbly Headed Bob comics that used to be in the JtHM comics.

    Edit: just read in the comments it was the same artist Jhonen Vasquez has a unique style.

    Weirdly, I never get brain freezes. When I eat cold stuff to fast, I get crippling pain in my throat.

      That’s a strange thing to say out of nowhere. Could you explain why you said that?

          Thanks for the response. I just received a screenshot from another user, and your comment seems like an appropriate response.

          BTW it’s not a webcomic. It’s an art insert for the deluxe edition of Mindless Self Indulgence’s 2008 album if and was created by Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of Invader Zim. Edgy is a subjective term, and to me this is simply art. It represents the state of mental health care in the early 2000’s which was almost entirely self-medication consisting of “home-made” pills, cannabis and NyQuil (ironically alcohol wasn’t as common, too bulky). The majority of my friends at that time had some sort of trauma, and no healthy way to deal with it. So this comic is basically what they were doing to themselves so they could feel better.

            That explains the similar feel with the art style. I didn’t know Jhonen did the inside art of if. I swear some of these facts will sneak up and hit you like a fucking tornado.
