TWONKS Comic Illustration: A Surprising Turn in a Robbery Scenario

A six-panel comic illustration by the artist known as TWONKS has caught the attention of many on Reddit. Titled "[OC] Not for me," the comic features two stick-figure-like characters in a sequence of actions that challenge initial perceptions.

In the top left panel, a woman with blonde hair tied in a bun, dressed in a blue jacket, black pants, and white shoes, is approached by another character in a gray hoodie, black pants, and black shoes. The hooded figure pulls out a gun, setting the stage for what appears to be a robbery.

In the top right panel, the woman cooperatively hands over her brown purse to the hooded individual. They stand facing each other in the middle left panel, with the woman now empty-handed. The middle right panel shows the hooded figure with the purse slung over their shoulder, still facing the woman.

The bottom left panel delivers an unexpected twist. The hooded figure returns the purse to the woman, who takes it back. In the bottom right panel, the hooded figure begins to walk away, leaving the woman with her purse in hand.

TWONKS’s signature is visible in the bottom right corner of the image, adding a personal touch to this intriguing comic. The illustration has sparked varied reactions from Reddit users. One user humorously noted, "Well, it didn't match the shoes..." Another user, reflecting on a personal experience, commented, "Hmmm... I've had a friend get knife-point robbed in front of his apartment. My friend gave up his wallet and then the criminals stabbed him anyway. This comic never happens."

The comic’s silent narrative and surprising conclusion suggest themes of reconsideration and kindness, leaving viewers to ponder the motivations behind the hooded figure's actions. Whether viewed as a commentary on human nature or a simple twist on expectations, TWONKS’s work has certainly made an impression.
