All of them were made, apart from few collaborative exceptions, by Zach, who started them as his final “last-ditch effort to find fulfillment.” Zach was in a very dark place at the time: he went to college to pursue something he wasn’t all that passionate about, and abandoned the field altogether after he graduated. He was also constantly getting chewed out by his abusive manager at a grocery store he worked in.

Zach was so worked up that he started reflecting on what he really loved to do, way back before he ended up in that mess in his life, and remembered that he always loved making his friends laugh with his drawings. Then it clicked. “One day I tried to think back to when I last felt ‘fulfilled,’ and it dawned on me that I was happiest when I was making my friends laugh with my drawings. Somehow, through years of schooling, that revelation escaped me. Had I thought of it earlier, I’d have started the comics years before I did.”

11 years later, and Zach has found himself quite a solid niche in the comic scene for his ‘Extra Fabulous comics.’ With over 600k fans on Instagram and many more on other socials, he has built an impressive readership and made quite a name for himself. And good for him!

Here’s what he loves about making his comics, as told in an interview in one of the previous posts. “I enjoy boiling things down and dissecting topics to the point where they’re unrecognizable,” Zach said. “I don’t really have much to say definitively, I just prefer to get people to smile and think and come to their own conclusions. Depression is perhaps the most enduring topic in my comics since it’s something that’s always on my mind.”

As for what these comics actually mean, Zach prefers the readers to make their own opinions about his work. “It is important to take breaks from the never-ending news stream, and I think there is honor in providing a place where people can lower their defenses,” he talked about how he’s making the internet a more wholesome, relaxed, and honest place. “That isn’t to say I haven’t made statements before, but I do often regret them afterward. Divisiveness has become the norm. I don’t want to fuel the extremism and hatred perpetuated by so many voices on both sides. I do have very strong beliefs, I just don’t believe I have the intelligence required to spew them into the masses,” said Zach.
