I live in INTERESTING TIMES is a webcomic created by Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho. It first appeared on January 29, 2010. Currently, it appears on irregular days at 7 am Finnish local time (currently, 4:00 UTC, 0:00 EDT, 17:00 NZDT).

It tells the story of Mr. Grossom living in "interesting times" (a curse, often apocryphally attributed to the Chinese) after he was deposed as the emperor. It is set in a world quite similar to ours, in the rough equivalent of the present day.
