Indeed, you won’t be able to guess what would happen in the last panel of Mike's comic strip.
When asked about his inspiration, the artist revealed that he gets inspired by all sorts of things. “For shorter comics, I mostly try to think of something that would be fun to draw: a werewolf transforming, a bog witch, ghosts, etc., and try to think of a joke to justify the drawings." said the author. "My longer-form comics generally start with a question 'what if you could spawn unlimited ducks?' 'what if a Twitter spam robot became sentient?' and the characters and stories evolve out from there.”

To the artist, experimentation should come with creative work because "there is always room to learn and creative problems that need to be solved.”
