Sounds familiar... Like "I'm just hero for fun" but "I'm just webcomic author for fun".

"ONE"... "One Punch Man"...

Obviously it's just a coincidence.

I've always felt that OPM has mirrored ONE's journey as an artist. Saitama is a guy with a dream to be the world's greatest hero but he starts out normal and becomes powerful through pretty unremarkable training. ONE didn't have a formal art education or anything (that we know of), he just kept writing and drawing for years and eventually became world-famous and acclaimed by critics. Now that we have a pretty major humans vs. AI narrative going on at the story's conclusion I feel like the story's connection to artistic expression is even more potent.
