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.

Movies never have giant monsters accurate, but it would be boring if they did. Gravity is still 9.8 m/s². They fall the same speed you do, but have a much higher terminal velocity because of their mass. As a result, they would look like they're walking on the moon and would ignite the air at higher speeds. Also, biological monsters would overheat very fast.
That's why they tend to breath fire n stuff.
Old Godzilla movies got it right. He did look like he was walking on the moon. Not bouncing, but he probably had atrophied muscles from being in the water all the time.
Poor guy. Overheated and tired, no wonder he was grumpy!
Sure, now you're going to tell me time travel isn't possible either.
