Description This is a comic strip I created for Maldivians and is based on life in Maldives. Most of the jokes will only be understood by Maldivians or those who are familiar with how things work in Maldives but this one had a more international focus so I thought I'd upload it here too. It's based on a real conversation I heard while having tea in one of the many hotels near the harbour area in Male', Maldives.

I started on this very recently so I've only done a few comics on this strip so far.

Based on the comments I've got on this I realize I should probably have highlighted the word 'Mars'.

Brilliant dialogue and a great punchline

And I love your character designs (I had a look at your blog, I don't "get" most of the stuff there, but I still like your characters^^)

Thanks. Like I said, the punchlines are mostly relevant to Maldivians or those who are familiar with life in Maldives. Thanks for looking and the I appreciate it very much.
