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.

Some of them are getting woken up now that the far-right president is tanking, and they're regretting to voting Trump to own the libs. I hope they also realize that "fandom gatekeeping" is not about keeping bad people out to preserve the quality of works, but is both a stupid tribalistic behavior, a bigoted recruitment tool, and to keep things "exotic and obscure, for street cred reasons". I especially met the latter one within metal (and through people I knew: indie rock) circles, I knew a guy who was really angry at me for ruining Meshuggah for him, by no longer making him a special little snowflake for having several Meshuggah CDs, and thus he couldn't show them off at meetups. (sorry for my off-topic tangent)
