Simple Routines

From 2005 to the present, One Percent Press's Simple Routines has quietly built a 13-issue meditation on the quiet, repetitive moments that shape everyday life. Eschewing superheroics for the poetry of the mundane, the series is most closely associated with its founding creators, who use a minimalist, observational style to find grace in small rituals. Its lasting significance lies in proving that a slow, contemplative comic—focused on character and atmosphere over plot—can sustain a devoted readership over nearly two decades.
