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.

Then the picture is from the last, and the image you see in the mirrors is from a past before the image.
Technically, everything we see is from the past. We can't actually see the present. The further we see, we look further to the past. Things like lightnings we see in the wild happened some fractions of a second before we saw them, for example. Useless trivia but I like it.
Yeah sure, but the task was to show someone a picture that is older, not one that is not from the past. That would require some sketchy technobabble at least.
