20 Thought-Provoking Comics By Japanese Cartoonist Keigo That’ll Make You Stop And Think

You can express anything through art.

Art has long been a powerful means of expression, allowing artists to convey complex emotions, ideas, and commentary in a visually appealing manner. When it comes to combining thought-provoking sentiments with humour, art has a special ability to engage viewers, challenge perceptions, and spark important conversations. Whether through satire, parody, or clever visual puns, artists can use humour to express social commentary and self-reflection.

Not everything has to be serious to be thought-provoking, and Japanese artist Keigo clearly understands this. His playful and whimsical approach to art frequently combines humour with deeper messages, resulting in a delightful and thought-provoking experience for viewers. Keigo’s work is infused with wit and satire, inviting audiences to think critically about society while also enjoying the lighter side of art. And, while he has posted many illustrations over the years, we decided to compile some of our favourites for your viewing pleasure.
