Pepper&Carrot is an open source webcomic series. Its author is the French artist David Revoy.[1][2] The series consists of small episodes about teenage witch Pepper and her cat Carrot.[1] The comic is translated into more than 28 different languages. The stories do not contain violence. That's because Revoy wants Pepper&Carrot to be accessible for everyone.[1][2][3]

Revoy says he makes the series only with free software, such as Krita and Inkscape.[4] You can download Krita source files for every image.

Funding[change | change source]

Revoy wants to change the comic book industry by removing intermediate steps in the production process. Pepper&Carrot is free, but Revoy lets people support him on the Patreon crowdfunding platform. You can sign up to give a small amount of money per episode that he makes. Patreon takes 5% of the money. The credit card companies take another part.[7] This is still less than a traditional comic production, where the publisher, distributors and retailers want money.
