30 Soft, Smart, And Slightly Existential Comics By Pleumier

ADVERTISEMENT

Some comics don’t need bold colors or big punchlines to hit you—sometimes all it takes is a quiet moment, a clever line, and a little truth. That’s exactly the kind of magic Pleumier brings to the table.

A biologist by day and cartoonist by heart, Pleumier turns life’s everyday thoughts, feelings, and awkward moments into beautifully simple comics. With soft watercolor tones and dry humor, his work is warm, relatable, and just the right amount of existential. Scroll down and enjoy a few of his latest illustrations—gentle, funny, and maybe even a little too real.

Lmao I was stung by a jellyfish on my calf at like 4 years old and my 9 year old cousin peed on it. After it didn't get better we went to our parents and he proudly announced it's okay I already peed on it!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
