War and Peas strip, drawn by Elizabeth Pich
Elizabeth Pich is a comics artist from Saarbrücken. She is the author of the webcomic 'Fungirl', and co-author of the ongoing webcomic 'War and Peas' with Jonathan Kunz. Pich and Kunz met at art school, and began their collaboration in 2011 with the launch of their self-publishing label L.I.N.S. Edition, initially accompanied by Christian Bart. On the label's website, they posted silly doodles and nonsensical comics, which they eventually turned into a weekly comic strip, largely under the guidance of Barbara Yelin. They gave it the title 'L.I.N.S.', and limited themselves to the four-panel format. The strips give a funny look at different types of situations, mostly dealing with unfulfilled desires, and generally have a sad twist ending. The title was changed to 'War and Peas' in 2016.

The authors usually create the entire strip together, but they also alternate on the artwork on some occasions. Prints of the strip are for sale on their website. They both enjoy the work of fellow (webcomic) artists like Kate Beaton, Nicholas Gurewitch, Chris McCoy and Alex Norris. Since June 2015, Elizabeth Pich also posts installments of her webcomic 'Fungirl', about the absurd and unashamed exploits of a girl in today's world. She also makes illustrations for online and print magazines.
