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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Depressing fact, reading this is just doomscrolling, don't do it
Planes make so much noise that it disrupts whales' communications.Edit: tried to back this up but it seems this is actually not as bad as once thought.

Full disclosure, I had a hard time finding sources by myself so I used an AI chatbot. It did find these sources but it drew the wrong conclusion from them - as ever.
I don't know if that is the best goal.
I've also realized that I might be old.
