marriage

Want to feel like absolute shit about love in a digital world? Well, cartoonist Tommy Siegel has some cartoons for you! He's taken Necco's (RIP) classic conversation hearts and put a seriously dark spin on the Valentine's confection. Instead of cutesy messages, he uses the hearts as to convey some seriously depression truths about dating, relationships, and marriage. And somehow, we can't get enough of his dark work. If you like what you see here, give the dude a follow on Instagram. He deserves it. 

We've featured a few of Christopher Grady's heartwarming comics on the site, but this here is the mother lode. The series explores a small family's adventures in parenting, partnership and the struggles of daily life. The comic touches on sensitive and dark subjects, but does so in a way that feels very real - and ultimately, optimistic.
