Why can't he manage to walk his dog, hit the gym, or even push a shopping cart down the grocery aisle without having yet another weird encounter? Or, just maybe, is he the one who provokes them? Even with those closest to him, Pascal has a knack for getting into trouble—especially when his young daughter Lucie starts to ask him profound questions about life, death, and the universe that he doesn't quite know how to answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom encounters with would-be swingers at the dog park to ferocious felines at the local cat cafe, in these short, snappy comic strips Pascal Girard delivers snippets inspired by his daily life, with a bittersweet humor that's sometimes mocking, sometimes tender, but always deeply observant. \u003cem\u003ePastimes\u003c\/em\u003e is a funny and surprisingly moving portrait of passing time in the modern world, one comic at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/em\u003e 2025 Adult Comics \u0026amp; Graphic Novels Preview Selection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lunar Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47104924385521,"sku":"978292511454351495","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/9865\/1469\/files\/978292511454351495_bf22ebab-3a64-4516-9305-8cfa523ad4ab.jpg?v=1776922698","url":"https:\/\/vaultofmidnight.shop\/products\/pastimes","provider":"Vault of Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
