During the Corona-Virus pandemic our landlord decided to sell our house. Unfortunately, we were in the way. Served with a notice to vacate, we had to look for somewhere new to live, to fight for our rights as tenants, while self-educating myself as an online teacher. As an outlet and a means to document this crazy time, I started making diary comics.
I was fortunate to have these comics published by ABC Online. It was quite amazing to see my humble comics there! This comic got a lot of sympathy from people, many of whom had been through similar experiences. It struck a chord and is the closest I've come to making something that carries a quality of 'shared truth' in my autobio comic-making history.
You can view the comic via ABC in mobile view, or below for desktop. It will help if you have a large screen and occasionally squint a bit.
To be continued :)
you've got two 31st panels :)
Did you not have a thing where you are that stops people from getting evicted? D:
we were given a notice to vacate which is different. at the time the pandemic was still relatively new so the laws had not been revised. legally they were within their rights to give us the notice.
You must have been on a periodic lease? If you were on a fixed lease, with an end date they are unbreakable without written agreement between both parties.
exactly, periodic lease. the owner had a business and panicked, pretty much.
Ah ok, yeah it's the way it usually happens. I'm not sure where you are but here in Australia I've been in the property industry for 20 years, commercial and residential and currently work for one of the countries biggest groups...There's a lot of pain on the way for commercial landlord and residential also...Just my opinion.
