    Definitely not comics.
    A think it’s a “Tom Philips Wannabe”, instead

    If anything, this sort of visual evokes a familiarity to what poets call “eye poetry”.

    I think it’s cool.

    Not sure I’d call it a comic, per se, since the lack of images to go with the “found poetry” (Altered Book parlance) aren’t there, but it’s a neat way to juxtapose the bits of poetry or trails in a recognizable comic strip layout. Fusion.

    I wouldn’t call it a comic either. Even if there’s an idea floating in there, there’s no story.

    Since it reads right-to-left, I believe it’s Manga.
