Paul Hawkins
Paul Hawkins is - according to the numbers - a full-grown British “adult.” While he participates begrudgingly in the economy as a humourist - the minimum viable job - he prefers to spend his time luxuriously faffing and/or travelling the world in search of an elusive and undeserved retirement. To this end, his life-long pilgrimage to avoid a “proper” job has deposited him in the Holy Mecca of Delayed Responsibility-Seekers: Berlin. He continues to write and draw things (mostly reluctantly as deadlines loom), just as the boringly villainous institutions of adulthood continue to hound him… except now in the far more terrifying German language.
