Rusty Epstein is the kind of comic artist who can make you laugh by pointing out exactly what you’re thinking but too polite to say out loud. As the creator of "Bummer Party," he turns everyday awkwardness, intrusive thoughts, and socially uncomfortable moments into sharp, bite-sized cartoons.
There is no elaborate backstory or over-the-top characters here, just a single idea delivered with perfect timing. The humor works because it is relatable, like the tiny panic of sending the wrong text, noticing someone staring for a second too long, or imagining every possible social disaster before it happens.

"Bummer Party" thrives on honesty and subtlety. Rusty’s clean visual style and dry delivery let the punchline land without distraction, making the comics feel effortless even though the observations are precise. Themes like internet culture, social anxiety, and quiet existential dread appear frequently, but they are wrapped in humor that feels natural, not performative. Each comic is unmistakably his, with a confidence in simplicity that surprises and delights, proving that sometimes the funniest moments come from embracing imperfection rather than pretending everything is perfect.
