Story Robot

Just discovered this wonderful comic. Art by Ethan Nicolle (age 29), with story by Malachai Nicolle (age 5).

This is extremely similar to the stories I would write in primary school (actually, it’s quite similar to some of the stories I write now). But what impresses me is the storytelling techniques at work. There’s routine breaking, reincorporation, and internal logic (for example, in the world of axe cop, any time you get someone’s blood on you, you gain their powers).
