30 Feminist Comics By Artist Xan That Sum Up Everyday Life Problems Of A Girl
Is it strange how we speak different languages, live in different countries, or work different jobs, but sometimes live similar lives? Yeah...it isn't strange at all. Although we may not be so alike after all, knowing that someone's experience we can relate to is something interesting, right? So, are you glad to see how others are living and what they're going through? If yes, let us introduce you to "Promptlypaneled" comics created by artist Xan that may satisfy your need.
We usually see our lives as mostly boring and "not much to write home about". To the woman Xan, her life problems can create great comic strips. In "Promptlypaneled", the artist depicts funny, absurd, and ironic moments that she encounters daily. All illustrations are “based on everyday experiences” which she called an outlet for her struggles. That's why sometimes you find it so relatable. Although Xan's comics focus on female readers and feminist perspectives, men also find her drawings engaging because many of them feature male characters.
Xan shares that she started the comic in 2019 before the pandemic, and she believed it was 2020 when one of the comics went somewhat viral. Illustrating daily life situations isn't a new topic in the comic world, but Xan's comics take an important mission. "Generally, I think there will always be a need to showcase women-centric struggles," says the woman. "Being a woman" isn't considered the social norm, despite making up 50% of the population, and because of that, a woman's voice is easily drowned out online. Even with my comics, people often assume I'm a man, even though the character is clearly not. I'd love for us as a society to move forward to a world where being online does not automatically mean being a man." Many individuals bring in a lot of negativity, but she thinks it's part of the progress.
