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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.

MODERATORS
Why did you slice the artist's name off the bottom? That's fucked up
This user has a vendetta against ads, which to them includes artist signatures / websites / social handles.
Credit = advertising? What a freebooting loser
"What do you mean plagiarism?!? Why did you give me 0% on my essay, professor"
"You didn't cite a single source! You didn't even include a references page."
"I just didn't want to give those authors free advertising."
This person woud crop a signature out of a Picasso
And generate a whole new image in the process.
It really does feel like something that they'd do.
I van understand if it's Chevron or Lockheed Martin or even Chick Fil A for that matter but an indie art feveloped? Taking away their credit. Absurd behaviour.
It’s not the same if you don’t have someone that staunchly hold a weird belief or ideals ya know.
