Ok, I feel like this is a relevant enough post to say; this comic gives the vibe of a Serial Experiments Lain x Adventure Time blend, and I adore that.

I think the Adventure Time aspect is most obvious with the post apocalyptic setting, set in a barren wasteland with the rotting surviving remnants of the past society. The art style is reminiscent with it's beautiful use of vibrant, monotone colours. Not to mention animal guides/side kicks.

Meanwhile the Serial Experiments Lain aspect is a bit harder to describe, but mostly lays with the Techno-surrealist, abstract, paranoid and overall confusing but intriguing nature of the work, not to mention the non-linear storytelling

They all share an odd dreamlike quality
