Hard to imagine this isn't about Disco Elysium

Anyone know the artists name? I have seen a few others of theirs that I like.

It's "Mr. Joshua", aka Pants (or Pantspants). I have no idea why he never signs or watermarks his comics.

you don't need to sign when you have your own style

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 3 points 6 hours ago

It used to be very hard to find an artist even if they have a distinct style, but your search terms are ‘Spanish artist with a lot of unsettling characters hiding the pain and smiling’ or something like that

hmm yeah... but you still shouldn't sign your art with that username @merde

Did they also do the illustrations for Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark?
