Butter Corn Ramen (Full Comic)

Here's the full comic, as promised! 

Back in 2015, I traveled up through Northern Japan. On my birthday in Hokkaido, I had butter corn ramen in a tiny restaurant I don't remember the name of, and wound up going back multiple times because I liked it so much. After having it for dinner three days in a row, I started feeling sick and had awful nightmares. This comic is inspired by a dream I had. I tried making it into a comic back in 2017, but after drawing the first page I came down with a horrible flu and wound up having to go to the emergency room for exhaustion and dehydration. When I finally felt better again, I decided to move on to other comics. But this always stuck with me, so I decided to finally draw the whole comic.

And yet I'm still hungry for ramen

Erin Lewis

Oof my trypophobia could never

Mikayla

This comic introduced me to butter corn ramen, and it is now one of my favorite ways to make ramen. I should buy some corn...

Needs a trypophobia trigger warning lol

This one needs the horror tag! It gives me Junji Ito vibes!

Caleb Rizio

I HATE HOLES 😭😭😭

1. I generally don't like corn, off the cob. 2. I've started adding more creative notes to my food orders, as necessary. I added the note, "no corn, please. It creeps me out. Reminds me of teeth. :( " While not the depiction you used in your story, I'm still attributing this to you. I already didn't like corn. But now corn is creepy.

Bean Planter

Wow! This one is so good! (and nasty)

I read this comic when it first came out and haven’t read it since. Had a nightmare about it last night. It still haunts me.

Ooh so good! Really reminds me of Junji Ito comics! Love me some body horror.
