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.

Yeah fair enough. If watching Nazis dig impossibly deep holes brings you joy in these end times then by all means don’t let me rob you of that.
I've come to take a great deal of solace in seeing that our selfish species as a whole has lost.
All the stupid race wars, empires of dust, snake oil peddling religions, and nation states in human history. All the elitists manipulating peasants out of greed and glut. Nobody wins. Good.
For the very real in my opinion overarching crime of humanity: dividing ourselves and competing against one another at every conceivable level instead of working for each other, we as a species deserve what we have wrought.
Humanity will survive. We're cockroaches. Maybe If we're thinned out enough, when we rebuild, we can rebuild as a planet and a people instead of as nation states undermining one another to get mooooooore than the next guy. This petty nation state crap is idiotic, and a means for sociopaths to manipulate people against people for power.
I see it more as an unfortunate victory of destructive ideology than a well earned collective punishment for our faults as a species, but otherwise agreed.
