- 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.

No, no, you're cooking. I can see that interpretation.
I don’t see it when the lady saying “bro” after he loses the visor. “Bro” is not something ladies really say.
My daughter has entered the chat bro.
Really?
Maybe it's linguistic continuity to show they are the same person from before the visor was removed. Or...
Maybe women can just say "bro".
Edit: I'm not calling you a sexist or anything, but it's a weird deduction to make based on very subjective/anecdotal "evidence". I've interacted with a lot of women online they use "bro" pretty freely.
They can, but that’s really more a dude thing.
But women can be dudes too
Speak for yourself, bruh. We may not all say it, or say it as frequently as men do, but some of us absolutely have "bro" and its varieties within our regular vocabulary.
Honestly, I grew up using "dude" the same way (it was unavoidable when you grew up surrounded by brothers and male cousins in the 90s.) "Bro" was adopted later on. It has the same gender-coded tinge to it, but since "dude" already made sense to me, "bro" never felt strange to say.
Bro, what.
I (afab) call my husband, sisters, and female friends bros, dudes, dawgs, and guys.
Whether I’m a lady is debatable, because I’m a little rough around the edges, but I’m definitely female and wear skirts.
