The Muse

1 Comment

4 panel comic (Yonkoma) by War and Peas. 1. Panel: A writer sits by her desk. She says, "Everyday, I sit here trying to think of a great idea." 2. "Waiting to be kissed by the muse." 3. A moose suddenly appears at the window and shouts "I'm ready!" 4. The writer is annoyed and goes, "Goddammit, Frank! I SAID MUSE!"

This comic was published a while back on Patreon. Our supporters regularly get insights into our sketchbooks and have access to strips that nobody else gets to see. They loved this story so much that they encouraged us to publish a full color version. So here it is! Cheers to our patrons – you’re the moose we love to kiss!

This comic is made possible with the help of our backers on Patreon. Go to War and Peas to read more comics and find all links.

... if Daniela survives napping *inside* a cyclotron that would count as an interesting discovery, no?
