Mayanka Goel, screenwriter, copywriter, journalist, and artist from Mumbai, India, draws what we’re all thinking — but funnier. In her one-panel comics, she distills the weird, annoying, and strangely tender moments of everyday life into sharp visuals and even sharper punchlines. Whether it’s the silent tension of work meetings or the existential dread of small talk, her work is instantly recognizable and weirdly comforting.
Goel’s style is clean and minimal. Her comics aren’t just relatable — they feel like tiny mirrors held up to modern life. Scroll down — chances are, you’ll see yourself in more than a few of these.

Goel mainly works as a copywriter but also writes fantasy, science fiction, and horror stories inspired by the relationships her younger self wished for. Her narratives explore themes like love, loss, and self-discovery.
A passionate fan of animated series, she’s also an avid reader of comic books and graphic novels. When she’s not working, you’ll likely find her watching Doctor Who, diving into anime, or sketching quirky little cartoons.
