This comic strip from 2016 feels like an ancient artifact to us.

There are days when looking at something you’ve created feels like staring too long at your own reflection under unforgiving fluorescent lights, full of flaws and imperfections. And yet – despite its flaws – there’s something in this comic that still speaks to us in a way that makes us think that maybe it wasn’t so bad after all.

And hey, if you like it, too, there are a few signed prints left in our shop!

In this comic by War and Peas, a person sets a mouse trap with cheese, mocking the mouse by saying 'Haha, dumb mouse.' The mouse, near the cheese, responds 'Yeah. I do love cheese.' The mouse then expresses its love for cheese, stating 'I love cheese so much, I'm prepared to die for it,' and asks the person if they have ever loved anything so much. The person, reflecting on the question, responds sadly with 'No...' while the mouse is trapped. Feeling remorseful, the person opens the trap and frees the mouse, who escapes with the cheese. The final panel shows the mouse joining other mice in a cozy home, saying 'Haha, humans are chumps.'

4-panel comic by War and Peas.

Panel 1: A woman approaches a tall tree in a grassy landscape, saying, "Oh wise and gentle giant. Tell me a story." The tree stands serenely under a bright blue sky.
Panel 2: The tree replies, "Once, there was a species called humans who destroyed the planet and all living things." The scene remains peaceful but contrasts with the harsh story.
Panel 3: The tree continues, "One day, a particular twat came up to a tree asking for a story." The woman looks up at the tree, her expression unchanging.
Panel 4: The woman breaks the fourth wayll, thinking, "That last part seems unnecessary," as the tree stands motionless, towering above her in silence.
