- 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.

Of the well showed the future of their choices, true love is the only one that has lasting happiness. The spaceship will need maintenance or a spare part that doesn't exist. The money will be spent and put that person in the sight of predators. The superhero will be expected to use their powers for others and eventually lose their love or compassion for the job as it takes a toll on their mental and emotional help. It only takes one accident to show the flaw in all the choices but true love lasts. He can be on his deathbed and know he will not be alone. She can have the worst day of her life and know there is always someone there to help.
Or she'll die prematurely in an accident (maybe x-wing or superhero related) and he'll die alone after going through life knowing there's no one as perfect for him as she was.
True love doesn't have to mean only one true love exists though. It won't be the same, but different doesn't mean worse
You're assuming I'm using my superpowers for good. I mean that's not what I would do.
