Think I’ve Still Got It is the first translation of the cult phenomenon by Wang XX. Since beginning the semi-autobiographical Seal series in 2015, Wang XX has built a fictional, animal-populated universe through hundreds of comics and illustrations. We join our hero, Seal, on her journey through the intoxicating victories and crushing setbacks of modern life.
“Wang XX’s seal stories feel like visual ASMR — While being painfully relatable through their portrayal of anxiety and loneliness, they are also deeply comforting. I can see the seal in my mind’s eye whispering, ‘Everything’s gonna be okay.'”– Aisha Franz, author and illustrator of Shit is Real
The book comes with six stickers loosely sealed into plastic bags on the front and back.
