damn so you’re telling me people still won’t listen even when we’re nice? who would have thought…. /s
A black and white doodled four-panel 2x2 comic. Titled “Pretty Please Don’t Spread Disease”. Made by doodlesbycharlie 2025. In panel 1, there is a trapezoid character talking to a circle character who is wearing a face mask. The trapezoid raises both arms and eyebrows and says “You need to give people grace for not masking”. The masked circle looks towards them with a blank expression. In panel 2, trapezoid puts one hand on their hip and points their other hand towards the masked circle and says “If you were nicer to us we’d listen.” The masked circle still has a blank expression. In panel 3, the masked circle hands the trapezoid an extra face mask and asks ”Can you please mask in public to protect people from getting sick?”. The face mask has a smiley face doodled on it. The trapezoid looks towards the mask with a straight face. In panel 4, trapezoid throws both of their arms up and says “There you go with the policing again!”. The masked circle looks towards us with a blank stare and heavy eye bags. They continue to hold the spare face mask, that now has a sad face doodled on it.

don’t worry leftists will go back to yelling at disabled people by this afternoon
A two-panel doodled comic. In the top rectangular panel, there is a circle character wearing a face mask. They’re looking towards a triangle character and a square character who are not wearing facemasks. The circle points at them and says “You are participating in eugenics in multiple ways.” The triangle and the square have two overlapping spiky orange and yellow quote boxes above them with text that reads “It’s not that deep!” and “Move on!”. In the bottom rectangular comic panel, the triangle and the circle are now on the left side saying to each other with concerned expressions “That Sydney Sweeney ad was awful!” and “Awful! How did we get here?”. The masked circle looks towards us, the audience, in the bottom right corner of the panel. They look exhausted and have eyebags.

it’s disability pride and here is a friendly reminder that anyone can become disabled at any point. find pride in wearing a damn mask!
Panel 1: The first panel of a black and white doodled comic. A trapezoid character is standing next to a circle character. The circle is wearing a mask and holding up a tiny Disability Pride flag. The trapezoid points and asks “What flag is that?”. The circle responds “Disability Pride!” Panel 2: The trapezoid smiles and says “Cool! Can I have one?”. The masked circle hands them the flag and a face mask and says “Sure! Here’s a mask too.” Panel 3: The trapezoid is now holding the Disability Justice flag up high but did not take the mask. They say “I don’t need one. I’m not high risk.” The circle, holding the extra mask low to the ground, looks at the trapezoid and says “But anyone can be disabled by a virus.” Panel 4: The trapezoid puts their hand on their hip, waves the Disability Pride flag up higher, and says “I’ve had Covid 4 times and I’m still out here!”. The masked circle looks towards us, the audience, with a blank stare. They’re still holding on to the spare mask. Made by doodlesbycharlie 2025.

hey if you are on our side you’d be masking up outside of protests too :)
A 4-panel doodled comic. Panel 1: A black and white doodle of a square and circle character standing on top of a tiny green hill. The circle is wearing a face mask and lifts their arm as they say “Fighting fascism requires masking beyond protests.” The square looks at them with a blank face. Panel 2: The same scene as slide 1. The square raises both arms and eyebrows and says “Now is not the time to critique people in your side.” The masked circle looks at them with blank expression. Panel 3: The same scene as slides 1 and 2. The circle shrugs both arms and says “It’s been time…”. The square looks at them with blank expression. Panel 4: A doodled line graph of Covid-19 daily infections labeled on the y-axis and each year from 2020-2025 labeled on the x-axis. The graph is filled in with the same green from previous panels. The words “so”, “much”, and “time” are staggered across the graph. At the very end of the graph are a tiny version of the square and circle character standing on top of a 2025 peak.

fight back by normalizing masking every day, everywhere.
A doodled 2-panel comic. The top panel has four different shape characters (oval, square, triangle, octagon) standing close together and wearing N95 face masks. They are yelling “No fascism!” and “Fight back” as they look angrily towards two cops. The cops are pentagon shapes. They are wearing riot gear and looking angrily at the crowd of shapes. Slightly overlapping between the two panels is a gold rectangle with text that reads “Hours later..”. The bottom panel has the same four masked shapes from above, but they don’t have face masks on anymore. They are walking out of frame. They are throwing away masks into a trash can that’s full of other masks. There are also masks on the ground. A masked circle character stands behind the trash with a blank expression and looks towards the ones walking away.

not asking for perfection, but expecting consistency in your protection. if we actually care and we can, the list of places we mask won’t shrink, they’ll expand.
A doodled black and white four-panel 2 by 2 comic. In panel 1, two characters standing next to each other: a square and a circle. The square has their hands on their hips and a confident expression as they say “I wear a mask to protect disabled people! At the grocery store, doctor, and pharmacy.” They’re speaking to a circle character who is wearing a face mask and looking at the square with a blank expression. In panel 2, circle gently raises their arm and responds with “Many of us have to go to more places than that. A lot of us work in public.” The square looks at them with a blank expression. In panel 3, the circle lifts both arms and raises their eyebrows at they ask “And what about the spaces we want [underlined] to be in? Don’t we deserve protection there too?” The square raises their brows with an uncertain expression. In the last panel, square leans forward and points to themselves and the circle as they say “Well I deserve some understanding and to not be interrogated by the mask police!”. The masked circle looks towards us, the audience, with a blank expression and bags under their eyes. Made by doodlesbycharlie.

you want me ill? here’s the bill.
A doodled 2x2 four-panel mostly black and white comic. Panel 1: An octagon character is speaking to a circle character. The circle is wearing a mask. The octagon raises their arms and says “You don’t have to wear a mask around me!” Panel 2: The masked circle hands over a brown clipboard with a piece of paper clipped to it that has tiny lines and a blank signature line. The octagon reaches out to take it. The circle says “I need you to sign this waiver that you’ll pay my bills and take care of me if I get sick and more disabled.” Panel 3: The octagon holds the clipboard in front of their face and looks down at it. Text above them reads “What? No…I’m not doing that?!” The masked circle looks towards them with a blank expression. Panel 4: A close up of just the top half of the masked circle’s face. They have heavy, lowered brows that make a serious expression. The comic panel is filled in black. White text above them reads “Then the mask” and larger white text below that reads “stays on.”

find pride in protecting your community in the midst of the pandemic that never went away.
A doodled 2-panel comic. The top panel has four different shape characters, all smiling big. A square is holding a pink and blue sign with text that reads “We keep us safe”. A triangle is holding up a rainbow. An octagon and trapezoid are both holding a long colorful sign with text that reads “Protect trans & queer youth.” The bottom panel is filled in with gray. In the background are the four shapes from the top panel, but they are just siholuttes in the distance. A circle character stands in the foreground, looking towards the other shapes with a blank expression. They’re wearing a face mask and are holding a tiny pride flag that’s lowered to the ground.

oh how the (mask distro) tables have turned
A 4-panel comic by doodlesbycharlie. Panel 1: A pentagon-shaped character is standing with their hand up in a “stop” position towards a circle-shaped character who is wearing a mask. The pentagon says with a grumpy expression “The city doesn’t need your masks or air purifiers”. Panel 2: The pentagon puts both hands on their waist and with a confident expression and smile says “In fact, we are preparing to ban masks.” The masked circle continues to look at them with a blank expression. Panel 3: A green hill appears behind the pentagon and circle, and orange flames are at the top of the hill. The pentagon looks towards the fire with a surprised expression and their hand towards their mouth. The masked circle looks at the fire with a blank expression. Panel 4: The fire has grown larger and the hill is now a sandy brown color. The pentagon turns to the masked circle and raises their hand behind their head to form a nervous pose. They have bags under their eyes. The pentagon says “SO about that PPE…”. The masked circle looks straight at us with a blank expression.

a comic on grief

part 1/3
Simple doodle of a circle character looking in a mirror. Their reflection shows their face with bags under their eyes and a straight mouth. Handwritten text above reads “I look in the mirror and I’m older.” Three narrow panels stacked on each other with simple doodles and text inside. The top panel has the top of circle character’s face with forehead lines, smile lines, and a straight mouth. Text next to it reads “Lines on my face are a little deeper.” The middle panel has just two eyes, eyebrows, and eye bags. Text next to it reads “My eyes dimmer.” The bottom panel shows a circle character and their body, with text next to them that reads “My disabilities louder.” Handwritten text at top of a doodled panel reads “Years have passed”, and text below that reads “but I don’t feel like I have years of memories.” Small doodles of 3 separate calendars are shown labeled Mar 2020, Mar 2022, and Mar 2024. A tiny circle character falls from calendar to calendar with a shocked expression. Handwritten reads “Time feels like Jello”, and the “Jello” text is made out of what looks like lime green jello. Below the text is a lime green jello blob with a circle character floating inside of it.

i’m fine
A 4-panel doodled black and white comic. In the first panel, a triangle character is talking to a circle character who's wearing a face mask. The triangle smiles, points at the circle, and says "It's smart you still wear a mask". In the second panel, the background is all black and the text is white. There's a close up of the triangle's face, who looks worried with bags under their eyes. Text above them reads "When I had Covid, I couldn't taste food for nine months. It hurt to breathe. My lungs haven't been the same..." In the third panel, it's back to a white background and inked doodles. The circle holds up a mask to the triangle and says "I'm sorry. I have masks you can use?" The triangle looks at the circle with a neutral expression and open mouth. In the final panel, the triangle runs away with a happy expression and says "No, I'm fine!" The circle turns to face us with a blank expression, with the spare mask still in hand but lowered to the ground. Made by doodlesbycharlie_.

interesting
Colored-in, single-panel comic. There’s a black and white circle character wearing a face mask standing outside on a sidewalk. They’re looking up to a window in a brick building, where there’s a party going on. There’s a big banner hanging on the wall that reads “Halloween party woo!” with a little ghost drawing next to the text. There are 3 shaped characters dancing to music underneath the banner: a triangle wearing a skull mask, a square wearing a Frankenstein mask, and a rectangle wearing a scream mask. The circle character outside has a thought bubble next to them with text that reads “oh so now you all can wear masks.”Colored-in, single-panel comic.
