Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. πŸ˜‡ Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. πŸ“½οΈ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. πŸ“‹ Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      βœ… Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. πŸ“¬ Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 πŸ–) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 πŸ–) will be removed.
  7. πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      SΓ­, por favor [Spanish/EspaΓ±ol]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.

Was Beast watching them bone while pretending to read a book? Or is the sound of boning in the distance like white noise that helps him concentrate on what he's reading?

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 81 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Oh my god I'm an idiot, that's Beast. I thought Wolverine just decapitated Sonic for some reason.

[–] AFallingAnvil@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 year ago

I love your version of the X-Men and their crossovers more

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 12 points 1 year ago

That's some fanfic I wanna read lol

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Based on the upvotes, it seems the internet (or this tiny corner of it anyway) thought you were onto something

[–] usernamefactory@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

I didn't confuse Beast with Sonic, but I updated because it's hilarious that someone else did.

I think he has enhanced hearing, so maybe he just got used to it in general?

Why doesn't she say, "it belongs to my teddy bear, look next to the bed!" This has got to be a parody of the cinema trope where characters choose not to give the easy explanation that would solve the problem instantly

[–] bizarroland@fedia.io 30 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not to mention that wolverines sense of smell would have immediately been able to tell the difference between a teddy bear hair and Beast's hair

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well plot twist: It was Beasts hair.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

He had been having an affair with the teddy bear.

[–] RaoulDook@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yep he would have been able to smell him outside the window watching too

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This shit is exactly why I can't watch "romantic" comedies. Too many of them solely rely on stupid misunderstandings like that.

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 2 points 1 year ago

Here's his chance to explain!

"Mary, wait!

Mary!

Mary!

Mary!

Mary!

Wait!"

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

She secretly wanted Beast to die, the teddy bear was part of the set up.

It all started when she heard a Joe Rogan podcast that suggested that the anti-mutant government was only going after non-human-looking mutants and that they would bring down the price of eggs by purging them all.

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 2 points 1 year ago

Directed by Michael Bay

[–] Goun@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

IKR? But I mean the guy was outside watching them, forget the blue hair

[–] ilovededyoupiggy@sh.itjust.works 37 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Beast seems pretty chill for having recently been decapitated.

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

"That all ya got, Bub?"

"Ah well, as my mother liked to always say, 'no use losing your head in tough situations'"

or

"To paraphrase the bard Shakespeare, 'To be or not to be, that is the -headed'" then wryly chuckles as his life fades

[–] Otakulad@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

She seems more annoyed than shocked that Wolverine just killed Beast, which also means this happens quite frequently.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He's a mutant. Maybe it grows back in a second.
Too bad there isn't some manual explaining all superpowers that will be shipped with you.

[–] SouravSatvaya@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If it was the cheating case then don't you think he should have beheaded her too? She's equally responsible for such an act.

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

That's a bit too fair and progressive for a hothead like Logan

[–] Frog@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

Logan should've veen able to smell the hair.

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's gonna be an awkward team scrum

[–] swab148@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

So embarrassing
