Emotions Explained with Buff Dudes: Owlturd Comix Kindle & comiXology

"Emotions Explained with Buff Dudes" is a compilation of webcomics by author Andrew Tsyaston, aka Shenanigansen (or Shen, for short), popular writer and artist of the webcomics "Owlturd Comix" (now renamed "Shen Comix") and "Blue Chair". The comics presented in this book have been taken from both of those, and there's a few I don't recognize, so there's a chance they're exclusive to this book.The comics are generally short, amusing tales that give a physical personification to emotions or abstract concepts (like weather) in order to entertain by mocking inspirational life lessons while occasionally subverting itself by providing legitimate inspirational life lessons. They're cute, smart and most of the time absolutely hilarious.The art style is attractive in its simplicity while at the same time allowing the author's massive imagination to run free. While it's true that a few of the jokes in these webcomics seem to share the same structure (a fact that got the author mocked once; something he masterfully reversed later), the ones picked for this book manage to avoid that trap for the most part.It is a definite recommendation. Buy the book for its great content. If you don't want to risk it, then go read the author's webcomics first and then buy it to support his work.

Me: I'm not sure if we should really be writing a review. Makes me nervous we'll be judged on our opinion.LIFE: Oh stop being such a big baby! I'm judging you right now and I still say you're lame!Me: jeez ok. I think this is one of those books that can show you just how life ca-LIFE: IT'S AWESOME!Me: will you let me finish?LIFE: you're too slow!Me: anyway. It shows you the many sides of life while giving you a smile in return. There is so much to relate to in this book that I think it deserves the 5 stars. Definitely worth getting!LIFE: AND IT STARS YOURS TRULY! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?!

Lets get this straight: This book is SO AWESOMEProblem: There is something I don't likeProblem About the Problem: I might be taking it like a big deal even though it isn'tWell, I'll Tell You Though: On pg 37, it said that right hands are a good writer, drawer, and has good strength, while in the other hand, the author claims that left hands has a hard time with doorknobs but tries its best. Sooo… The author is basically saying that left handed people are bad in everything compared to right handed people, am I right? This hit me hard because I am left handed and I DON'T have struggles with doorknobs -- and I am NOT so bad in writing, drawing, or other stuff. Maybe I might be taking this like a big deal… But you can't say I enjoyed reading THAT.But other than that, AWESOME! (Watch what u say though)_Kindle Customer Who Thinks This Author's Book Is Great But Thinks This Author Should Be More Careful When Writing(Haha… Long name, right? Ignore it)

Absolutely love the book and the artist. So grateful I pre-ordered this to be one of the first people to actually have it. Well worth the money. Looking forward to see many more things that Shen creates. Very very proud of you keep going. You have a lovely following. I know all of us who have followed you on webtoons and other social media are grateful that you are a part of our lives.

Owlturd Comix have brought much joy in difficult times of my life. Andrew Tsyaston's comics are both funny and poignant. His main character, Shen, is an inspiration. He keeps fighting against all odds and never loses hope. The book smells nice, too! ^.^ (refer to the photo)

I enjoyed the way he depicted the emotions with humor. I shared it with adults, an eleven year old girls who had trouble regulating emotions and teenagers. I also shared it with another therapist who works with teens and she’s stll using it with her clients! It is not preachy and is easy to understand. It opened up communication about different feelings and how they affect the person. It is a good tool.

I enjoyed the way he depicted the emotions with humor. I shared it with adults. It is not preachy and is easy to understand.

It is a good tool.The humor is fairly cynical/pessimistic which appeals to me, even though it probably shouldn’t (as a TEACHER I may have seen human nature at its worst a little too often). I think that I laughed the hardest at the comparisons as they were pretty spot on for me. I’ll leave you to guess which of us is which.Overall, this was the funniest thing that I have read in a long time. If your sense of humor tends toward the cynical, you must read it!

Loved it. Loved the artist. Great book with things I had not seen on the IG. Had a lot of fun flipping through it with my wife and she’s not a super fan like me. She still enjoyed it a lot. Took it to work and have a lot of fun opening it up randomly on small breaks. Goes great with office life.

Just one word: AMAZING! Best purchase ever!No matter who, no matter when, you'll fall in love with this little piece of art. I've been following this author's comics since always, but even without knowing him I know you (whoever you might be) will completely and absolutely fall head over heels with it!It's funny, it's original, it's just perfect! One of the things I like the most is his ways of seeing life, so grey and funny at some times, like life itself!This is not only for you, but also for sharing with your beloved ones, for they'll also love it to the core!I'm really looking forward to your next publication, Tsyaston!

Arrived on time & very well packaged!Very happy with my order! - Well worth the price & great value for money.Such a quirky gift for a great friend! - Highly recommend!

but I want it back. It's just one of the best things. Really unique, spot-on, funny self-effacing comics. I laughed and I learned and I got jealous of my brother because now he has it and I don't.

I LOVE LOVE this book - this is the second time I’ve purchased, this time as a gift for a friend!

Saw lodes of his art on Pinterest and when I found out there was a book I just had to have it. There where loads of new comics that I didn’t even seen online. One of the funniest books. Love it.
