War and Peas comics are the darkly witty creations of Germany‑based duo Elizabeth Pich and Jonathan Kunz. Since 2011, their four‑panel strips have exposed the absurd, the surreal, and sometimes the unexpectedly tender moments of life. With offbeat humor and sharp punchlines, these comics have amassed a global following.
Elizabeth Pich and Jonathan Kunz met at HBKsaar art school in Saarbrücken, Germany, and began War and Peas as doodles for fun. What started as playful experimentation evolved into a polished, weekly webcomic venture. They trade off drawing and co‑write every comic, bringing balance to the dark humor and emotional twists that define their style.
Launched online in September 2011, War and Peas has built a reputation for morbid mischief: a seductive but self‑assured witch, the Grim Reaper as a casual dinner guest, talking robots, and existential bugs. Over the years, they’ve been featured in print anthologies, gained 1.1 million Instagram followers, 161,000 Webtoon subscribers, and expanded into books with Andrews McMeel Publishing.
War and Peas comics deliver a bold cocktail of dark humor, existential play, and surreal charm. Perfect for those days when you want a laugh that’s needled with irony. With their sharp style and unpredictable twists, Pich and Kunz continue to redefine what webcomics can be—funny, haunting, and deeply human. Catch their weekly strips and consider grabbing one of their hit books like Funny Comics for Dirty Lovers to dive deeper into their twisted, delightful world.
