For me, the wonderful thing about Hourly Comic Day isn’t how interesting or polished the comics are, but rather that folks choose to participate in a giant group art project and share a bit of their lives with the world. Most of our day-to-day lives are full of mundane moments and boring tasks that we don’t really talk about. Personally, I think there is something truly comforting and beautiful about someone creating a tiny piece of art centered around those mundane moments. Isn’t it wonderful to know it’s not just your cat that meows like crazy in the middle of the night? Or how so many of us derive pleasure from the simple act of boiling water and making a hot drink in the morning? To everyone who participated in the 2019 Hourly Comic Day, thanks for letting us into your day. I loved it.
