I had made this comic to give away with the disastrous first print edition of my book-- people who very kindly bought the book at Indie Comix Fest Delhi in March this year got it with their book 🃏

Getting this book made was a headache and a BIG learning curve 🍥 I really didn't want to sell the book by itself without any explanation because it was SO BAD regardless of how much my friends tried to convince me it wasn't that bad...it was really really badly printed/made 🤢 puke emoji

So I didn't listen to my friends and made AND printed (at home) this comic in a rage infused state, the day I left for Delhi 😤✏️🔥

I think I only printed around 40 copies 🤔






After I came back from Delhi, he had "fixed" the book. The "fixed" book is on the right. The "fixed" book was:

1. Shorter than the earlier one
2. The cover was faded
3. Spine was prematurely cut






The earlier version of the book opened too much to the point where pages were falling out of it AND the "fixed" book barely opened because he had just taken the earlier version of the book, ripped the cover off, stapled the insides, trimmed it, slapped a new badly printed cover on it and called it a day. He talked to me as if he reprinted the whole book inside and out 🤡 I hate him so much 💞 (I got 200 books from this guy)

There's so much more I can say but I'll refrain 🦗🦗🦗

Anyway, I returned all the books to him because they were so bad I couldn't even give them for free 🤡

He ghosted me a lot, then some more things happened, I sent him a legal notice then HE sent ME a legal notice for DEFAMATION for writing a bad Google review and asked for 5 lakhs 😂

Then we met in person again, it was absolutely useless-- he said he can't refund the money but if I want to get some other things printed, he'll do it for "free". It's been 3 months since this offer and I don't know if I should really get something printed from him for "free". Maybe some black and white thing. Hmmm.

One of my very kind patrons was very kind enough to fund the entire second print run of the book from another printer so that's the book I have now. Also, I tweaked the cover and back cover design for the second print run 🐰🌟🐷
