Comics not only help us to have a better view of today’s society, but they are also a way to laugh at the absurdity or silliness of our lives. Jauneil Arvin Ma-ao, also known as the idiot of the east, is a Filipino artist who has the talent to turn familiar life situations into humorous illustrations. He creates funny and relatable comics that entertain more than 16,000 of his followers on Instagram!
The artist gets a lot of inspiration from memes, anime, popular movies, and TV shows and that’s visible in his work. A lot of his comics include well-known characters from movies or animations, making the illustrations even more relatable to the audience.

Jauneil’s journey as a comic artist started during the pandemic. He was planning to finish his engineering studies, find a job and save money for his true passion – webcomics. However, in the fourth year of college, the artist had his classes canceled, which left him with a lot of free time, so he started creating comics and posting them on the internet!
At the moment, comic-making is Jauneil’s main occupation.
