See I would've got scissors and cut it off because why am I coming undone lol

Kelsbyday

With more anxiety...

Claudellart

ok thanks i will NEVER be messing with my nails again. you just cured my anxiety

Annie

Same here. Instant cringe when I think of it. Adam you have become immortal in my mind with this fear. 🤣

Kelley Gillespie

Nah the fact that he didn't immediately start screaming when it was long was the first red flag lol

Leelynn Brady

Same here. I was actually just thinking about it again today, while I was picking at my own thumb hangnail. Hahaha.

MDyson

I will forever be haunted by this comic. I think about it at least once a day.

Jessica Confessore

I show this to my daughter to get her to stop peeling her hangnails. Not sure if it has been effective.

Lina Chen

Why’s it so funny though??

Gabriela

Major junji ito vibes with the body horror

Amanda Muller

welp, that's just how puberty be sometimes

Green

holy moly that one made me uncomfy lddlsls

sophie

Ooooooh I *hate* the frame with the skin on the floor. It gave me huge 2014 Under the Skin energy, and I hate *that* scene so much. Great remake of the original. I knew what was coming and was horrified anyway. Masterful! 👏👏👏

Sarah Sarah

The last frame cracks me up. That‘s exactly how a teen would react and the ikea-like furniture is a nice touch. Makes it that much more believable 👏🏻

Marina RP

I think this is the only comic you’ve done that genuinely made me uncomfortable. Like a nightmare I’d wake up from in a cold sweat.

Rumpeltyltskyn

This is truly what parenting teens is like

Ali Wakerley

Reminds me of my fave Ito story, “Flesh Colored Horror.”

Natalie Burton

Nah, looks worse than it is.

Alex Annje

Oooo hate it and it's awesome

Morgan Elizabeth Neuschafer

"No, it's fine it's fine just go to the bathroom, let's get you cleaned up, it's okay just don't touch the white sheets"

skysyzygy

Truly honestly the most unsettling comic I’ve ever seen from you and I do love it 😅

Gabriella Klengler

This is so much worse ! Thanks !

Gabriella Klengler

I have hangnails now…lemme go check something…

The Blackbird

Huh. My 10 year old gets a bit obsessed about hang nails...might share this one with him, lemme just check .....oh.....ohhhh nooooooo......

Darren Tuer

Gee thanks, the original still haunts my thoughts every time I get a hangnail. Glad I have this whole new version to haunt me too.

Christie

I do feel old indeed. Still remembered this comic!

India Voerman

I knew it was coming but I STILL audibly gasped when he started pulling. Well done 👍

Brett H.

It's not bad, barely noticed it.

Rabaerchen

I would ^^

This def feels like an allegory for addiction. The mc picking at his hangnail out of boredom/"satisfaction", seeing the consequences it had, and yet not being able to stop once he starts. To the point he literally sheds his skin and becomes unrecognizable, no longer able to hide his addiction. "Is it bad? It's not that bad, right?" Those words had a huge impact and really sold it for me. Idk, maybe I'm overthinking, but I really like the idea of it. Super cool work, as always

Kiki

Like a babybel cheese

CJ Spargo

I was going to say this exact thing

Patrick Dasher

I remember. I felt it the same way as back when I saw it the first time

LilChestnut14

WHY WOULD HE KEEP PULLING?! WHY WOULD ANYONE KEEP PULLING?!

Licia

Thanks for the body horror you SOB

Lenzalot

Oh god NO 💀

Aviv

This is one of my irrational fears and it made me ill, but good job

adamantEVA

The eerie suspense of each panel was PERFECT. 🧵

Grady McCoy

I love how you channeled Junji Ito in your own Adamtots style. So good.

xyull

He just needs to accessories a little. Some dangly earrings will bring out those muscle contour lines

Eli

Omg, the shivers down my spine seeing the hangnail skin pull 😬 that's the scariest part. My shoulders are up to my ears in discomfort 😱😱😱

Rach Meister

The new version feels very Junji Ito

Grace 'Gengar' Soria

I normally rip my hangnails out with tweezers it’s satisfying
