The Mercury sent four comics artists to Pickathon this year to make comics about the festival. Look for a new comic every day this week!

We profiled prolific comics artist, performance artist, and illustrator Jenny Vu in our 2018 Fall Arts Guide, and her work was such a hit that her comics became a regular fixture on the Mercury's Laugh While You Can page. With this comic, Vu captures her experience of attending the festival for the first time. Enjoy! SUZETTE SMITH

Check out Jenny Vu's other comics and creative endeavors on the Mercury's Laugh While You Can page, her website, and her Instagram.
