You're saying an actual human called that thing both "pen & ink" and a "typewrite"?

... Also labeled the clearly working lamp as "power outage"

... And doesn't understand how USB works

I don't buy it. Even if Ben did real drawing in the past, he clearly isn't now. Edit: Or as a reply pointed out, the signature could be fake too with Ben not involved.

Is this real? Or is it a fake comic making fun of Ben Garrison? It's hard to tell. I'd expect better even from him, which is saying a lot.

I dont think this is real. Definitely AI generated, very unlikely to be his actual work.

I agree, reverse image search isn't coming up with anything for this one, but it works on other comics from his site. Seems to be an imitation.

He's always been a big fan of labels.
