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.

The eyebrows are a nice touch.
Elaborate? Eyebrows?
The lines of hair above one's eyes.
Yeah I know what eyebrows are. Maybe it wasn't clear from my writing but I'd like to know what OP mean by "nice touch". I noticed queer love one has thicker eyebrows. Or is OP referring to difference in face expression of the viewer achieved by her eyebrows
My own comment was also ambiguous but I was referring to the noticeably thicker eyebrows, not only in the third panel but also in the second and fourth. I don't know the artist's intent and I am prone to overthinking but it seemed to me like it might be a subtle way to indicate differences between the bodies of the characters.
Not sure and not queer here.
But my guess is, that the woman in the cis pic has very trimmed, slim eyebrows - while the others have more natural looking brows. Maybe because the queer folk don't need to play the "stereotypical female game". They are defining their own sense of femininity, so no need for conforming with patriarchal stereotypes?
Again, just my guess. If I'm wrong: please explain. I'm always willing to learn & evolve.
