Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
Do you still "dial" a phone number? We haven't used actual dials in forever.
Ever clicked a URL? Well, it's actually a URI now.
Ever seen a soap opera? They don't have anything to do with soap anymore.
I think from a technical standpoint, this is a cartoon, but that typically implies animation in the year 2024. Comic strip is acceptable lingo, even if the depiction lacks an overt comedic device.
Does it still get to be called a comic if it lacks any entertainment or artistic value?
Is there a better term for a paneled, storytelling, drawn art?
Does this piece of shit really count as "storytelling"?
Yes.
Yes. I think Ben Garrison's bullshit is still a comic too.
