Webcomic Weekly: Rachael Smith’s ‘Anxiety Wrapped’
by Richard Bruton
Another week, another Webcomic Weekly. Oh, actually, no, it’s been a few weeks. But hey, alliteration wins over calendar accuracy any time. So, Webcomic Weekly, with yet another great thing from Rachael Smith…

Now, this is, checks notes, the fifth time I’ve featured Rachael Smith on Webcomic Weekly. And no, I’m not apologising for that at all.
Anyway, Anxiety Wrapped is, according to Rachael, just ‘A very dumb comic I made when I couldn’t sleep the other night. It’s probably already too late in the year for this joke to land.’

You know what it’s all about, the whole let’s summarise the year up, Spotify style, the marketing thing they came up with that everyone was doing. But no, I think Rachael’s got it way more on the nail here with Anxiety Wrapped.
And no, as she says, it’s not autobiographical, don’t any of you be going on Rachael’s socials and reminding her she’s got a baby. She knows, okay? Indeed, she’s done a whole series of comics about that – Nap Comix.
Go see what she does and go buy more of Rachael’s stuff here. Her powerful, emotive, and utterly compelling autobiographical works like Glass Half Empty, Quarantine Comix, Wired Up Wrong, and Stand In Your Power, and all her earlier works are just all there in my favourites and should be there in yours as well.
