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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

How is the moon eclipsing the sun at midnight?
Unless you're at one of the poles
But why would a panther be at one of the poles
It's a lunar eclipse, the Earth is eclipsing the moon, preventing it from reflecting the light of the sun
A lunar eclipse usually results in a red moon, since the moon is lit with red light from all the sunsets on Earth simultaneously
It's not in pure shadow, since the Earth's atmosphere acts as a lens and bends some of the light inward towards the moon
Oh right, the clean lines threw me off. Lunar eclipse shadows are much more diffuse.
