Parzival has quickly become a standout voice in online comics, marrying crisp, expressive artwork with spot-on humor that pokes fun at everyday experiences.
Created by the talented but delightfully anonymous artist behind Parzival comics, this series follows a laid-back protagonist—Parzival himself—and his eclectic group of friends (humans, geese, and the occasional demon) as they stumble through mornings, tech woes, and everything in between.
Since debuting in 2023, Parzival comics have amassed a devoted following on Instagram and Twitter, praised for their sharp writing, dynamic panel layouts, and the perfect balance of whimsy and relatability. Whether you’re a night owl, a klutz in public, or just someone who can’t stop doomscrolling, there’s a Parzival strip with your name on it.

In the first five comics, Parzival takes us through the chaotic delights of daily life. In “Morning Person” (#128), his eternally chipper friend greets him at sunrise with boundless enthusiasm—until Parzival’s coffee-deprived glare shuts it all down. Next, “Suggestions” (#121) skewers YouTube’s algorithm, as the little red cube bombards him with ramen videos he never meant to watch. “Assistance” (#108) captures that awkward moment when you finally find a deserted store… only to have a well-meaning clerk shadow you for miles. And in “Tech Support” (#135), Parzival’s off-camera wizardry on a laptop summons a tidal wave of elderly relatives demanding his help. Finally, “Roommates” (#133) introduces Toby the goose, who promptly relegates Parzival’s friend to the backyard henhouse—because every shared apartment needs a little chaos.

The next five strips dive into bigger ideas with Parzival’s signature wit. “Dream Life” (#148) finds him lost in a video game fantasy—until reality’s quiet goose protests from the couch. In “Misattribution” (#111), he blames his stress monster on dehydration, only to chug water until the deadline demon looks bored. “Synchronicity” (#149) nails that spine-tingling moment when a butterfly lands on your shoulder…and the exact “Butterfly” song pops up on your playlist. “Drawing Practice” (#144) shatters the fourth wall as Parzival scribbles his friend’s likeness, triggering an enraged chase. And “Aromatic Memories” (#115) evokes the warm nostalgia of your childhood home with a single whiff of tea.

Halfway through, Parzival comics tackle hunger, courage, and unexpected heroism. In “Wild Goose Chase” (#130), our hero calmly sips coffee… until a bold goose makes off with his croissant and he gives chase through the park. “Doomscroller” (#147) dramatizes the struggle to stop doomscrolling by counting down to work with a demon advisor whispering, “You’ve already wasted your morning.” “Starving” (#112) captures every overworked soul’s lament: a fridge full of ingredients and not a bite that feels worth fixing. “Don’t Play With Your Food” (#90) sees Parzival mocking whitebait… before the tiny fish beg for their lives. And “Badass” (#145) gleefully skewers RPG vanity, as Parzival decked out in gold armor draws both admiration and ridicule from his friends.

The final five strips celebrate small victories and meta-moments. “Windswept” (#142) has Parzival cheerfully braving a blustery stroll—until he’s swept up like Mary Poppins in a wind tunnel. In “Fair Game” (#139), a friendly card match turns into a brutal trap card that wipes out your entire hand. “Gotcha!” (#124) captures the pure joy of a perfect prank on your perpetually unflappable roommate. “Easily Entertained” (#119) finds him staring out a train window for hours, blissfully lost in the passing landscape. And in a final, behind-the-scenes comic, Parzival glances over at his creator—scribbling furiously in a sketchbook—before launching into another over-the-top chase. It’s a playful nod to the magic behind the scenes, reminding us why we love these comics: they’re made by someone who truly gets us.
Whether you’re greeting the dawn, wrestling with algorithms, or just craving a quick, relatable laugh, Parzival comics has you covered. Each strip is a little slice of life turned into something wonderfully absurd, and these twenty panels are the perfect place to start your Parzival binge.
