Sorry to dissapoint you, but this is one of the first requests I saw when I started browsing 4chan. Around 3 years have passed, and still no one knows the source.

That pic is a meme.

Here's how it breaks down:
We don't know anything about the original artist. We don't know where this was first posted before 4Chan, who posted it to 4Chan, or when it was first posted on 4Chan.

We don't know whether this is a stand-alone page in which case we're left to wonder if the word bubbles are left blank purposely, as is sometimes done, or that it was simply never finished. If we assume it is part of a much larger work (comic), our set of questions blooms wildly: what was its native language intended to be (if not Japanese or English!), was the comic ever completed in its original language, OR was this part of a translation from its original language which was never finished (or was this just a "transition-shot," with the word-bubbles cleared-up but the new text not added yet)?

We should declare this an archival monument. A historical treasure.

I bet someone drew that shit and left it like that just to make us look for a source endlessly. I also bet he patrols /d/ just to look at our desperation and laugh an evil, evil laughter.

Word bubbles? What word bubbles? There ain't any that I can see.

Good call on my goof. That still doesn't help the identification process.

Exactly, strangely enough there aren't any bubbles or sound effects at all...

I first saw the image on a random japanese image board (no longer exists) that was linked from the japanese site G-Zone in the bbs. If I recall, this was maybe three or so years ago. That's all I know, a true treasure indeed.

The first time I recall seeing this was just shortly after 4Chan's first server crash. An Anonymous poster; I don't remember if there was any text with it.

AND I'm not sure that's the original filename.
