Editor Comments

It’s true! We’re a little over a week behind the news with this comic strip, But the COVID-19 situation has already gotten to the point where restrictions are loosening in Shanghai.

You still see a lot of face masks on the street, but more and more people choosing to show their “naked faces,” and face masks are only required in certain congested places like the Metro (subway) and malls.

And, with this strip, we have hit #20 and the end of Boring 办公室 Season 01. In Season 02, the masks come off. Prepare yourselves!
