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.

I don't get it. This guy was shooting doctors? Why? Is there a second page to the comic?
The Devils Panties tends to use that character to depict an amalgamation of Gamergate, Rapist Brock Allen Turner, Kyle Rittenhouse, and every online debatebro combined, and so the other characters are written to react to him in such a way.
Looks a little too clean cut for Gamer Brock Rittenhouse or a debate bro, seems more like a Christian frat type.
I believe they're referencing Dr. George Tiller.
What about the turpentine reference?
I don't get it either. isn't turpentine just a paint thinner, sometimes used in mixes to make varnishes or clean furniture? smells awful.
I think it's because turpentine is associated with DIY abortion and maybe slavery. Men "fixing" women and the women having to "unfix" themselves. Using different solutions to induce abortion.
The tin snips and vasectomies is a decent clue.
Isn't it also highly flammable? My first thought with the comic was it would be used for arson.
